Vanity: MSM Lies About Kamala Crowd Size
YouTube ^

Posted on 10/30/2024 6:09:28 AM PDT by TigerClaws

Kamala spoke at The Ellipse yesterday in D.C. Reports came out that dozens of buses brought in attendees. MSM said 75,000 people were there.

This clear shot of the crowd looks to be under 10,000 to me.

There any way (computer program?) to calculate the crowd size?

I see maybe 15 porta-potties to the size. I'd imagine they have to have one per x number of people for permits.

Yeah, of course. Their days are numbered though. Unless we quit fighting.

That’s a good point. I don’t do sports and haven’t been to a concert in decades, so anyone’s local college football stadium is a good example (which in my case has a capacity of just over 50k with a recent renovation).

As literal ‘sardines’ you might be able to squeeze just under half on the field after an upset, but obviously not the entire stadium...

...let alone approaching that of the Superdome even in an area twice the field’s size (as I proffered).

Laughable, but the stupid believe it.

The GOPe doesn’t want Trump elected because Trump = true change and results.

GOPe is there to be fake opposition to create the illusion the voters have had a choice. Now we see Cheney, Bush, etc. all backing Kamala because she, Biden, Obama, etc. are all part of the ruling class.

For those that missed the “news” on this:

More than 75,000 watch Kamala Harris’ closing argument in Washington, DC

https://www.whas11.com/video/news/politics/national-politics/more-than-75000-watch-kamala-harris-closing-argument-in-washington-dc/417-f044a315-6ffb-438f-9cc3-3bfcb5876c40

Why would they lie?

They’d lie because it motivates their voters that things are close, Kamala has support, momentum is building, and I haven’t seen anyone question the crowd size in the stories.

I am sure every office in DC got the word to send their folks to the Mall.

And in the end, does the crowd size at the Mall have any bearing on who votes?

All of this is silly at this point.

Honestly, I think Harris is doing these stunts as an excuse to pay her consultants and DC caterers to empty her campaign coffers.

Is there really anyone out there who hasn’t made up their mind?

There’s some outfit posting on X (twitter) that has a means to observe how many discrete cell phones are in an area. They posted last night that there were under 14K, and that many of them had been to multiple Harris rallies.

That may be the way they tracked the voting mules in the DeSouza film.

14k is about right from what I see.

Yet - see above - MSM says 75,000 were there.

This is about creating the appearance of support so the steal efforts don’t seem completely abnormal.

If you noticed there are few large rallies for kamala because they move people they pay across the country in busses for a planned large rally. They need to also bring in the Diddy entertainers (probably by threats if they don’t) to help draw crowds. I heard the day of the Beyonce rally they played taped “sound checks” to make it appear Beyonce was really in there practicing for a concert. LOL

There are other rallies that they do not bring in the busses that get small numbers of people.

Those big bussed in rallies cost a lot.

Actually, it does matter, if it didn’t, Kamala would not be faking it.

I recall the anti-war demonstrations from the late ‘60s and ‘70s, which gave me a good sense of a crowd’s size. The number of people at those demonstrations was carefully measured by the Park Police, who actually counted them from arial photos. +50K people densely fill the Ellipse behind the White House with a more scattered crowd stretching onto the grounds of the Washington Monument. The crowd in this picture is probably not 5K.

They employed Calypso Louis’ “Million Man Math”.

"The number 144 is a square of the number 12. Master Wallace Fard Muhammad used this square number in mathematics as the foundation cornerstone in establishing the Nation of Islam. This number 144 cubed equals 1,728 cubic inches equaling 1 cubic foot. Thus, there were 17,728 attendees and everyone with two feet were told they better attend or lose thier government job.

For those who don't want to soil their browser, here is an image. I was inclined to say we don't know, this might have been 4 hours in front of the "speech", but the video is only 27 min long, and even if there is no timestamp...I don't think it was going to swell to 70K.

The FR post on the reddit astroturfing is a great example of the left’s desperation (plus hitler & garbage et al).

Still, I have little confidence that the election won’t be stolen (again).

There is the source of pertinent information. Count the crappers for an indication of crowd size. Remember this is a democrat event so a factor of 1.5 needs to be considered.

I was being generous without careful measurements.

I would concur and that was my first guess at the image on my tiny phone screen.

Again, “75k = Laughable.”
