Modesto, CA 4,000 -- 5,000 with over 4,000 petition signatures to back up the count. To address a couple of items up the discussion. No "clearing house". This was grass roots despite the Moonbats assertions of corporate/party support. We may never really know a full count... until next elections According to Mark Meckler the seed planter in Sacto, over 1,900 were "planned", and that is not counting the spontaneous parties that cropped up around the country. On a lighter note, just like the MSM's treatment of their favored protests, we can state any pumped up number we want! (adherence to truth and a moral compass is what keeps us from doing that however!)

Call it 300+.
I think it’s probably valid to tack on another 10%-15%, at least; there were reinforcements arriving to participate right up to 6:00pm. I showed up with a couple of my boys at about 5:00pm, and I know of at least five others who arrived after that.
One woman showed up right about 6:00pm straight up, fresh from her office, but determined to get in a few good licks.

Actually it says 7,000
Does not surprise me. I had to leave early (it was scheduled for 5:30 to 9:00PM) and there were waves of people arriving when I was leaving. I really don't know how many people the area in front of Dallas City Hall holds, but it was quite full.

Hey you! How you doing?
I have no idea about the numbers of any TPs other than the ones I attended. I just wanted to make sure that folks realized there were different numbers being floated.
For y'all to have Neil, Michelle and Lloyd the number should have been closer to 50k, IMO. ;*)

1500 in Bend, Oregon.
No incidents, no-code-pink/obummer types.
GREAT response from passing motorists.

"Do you think Obama expected this many people to organize against him without any political support?"
Good point. My opinion is that he doesn't care. In a nutshell, he's changing the foundations of this country so breathtakingly fast that it's obvious he's on a mission and he doesn't care if he gets a second term or not. He'll be set for life by then, anyhow.
In the meantime, he's living it up on our dime, seeing the world and partying. He's even pleaded ignorance of our Tea Parties.
In other words, we don't exist....only the rapid fulfillment of his commie mission is important.

Im figuring, millions and MILLIONS! And a good part of the country had pretty bad weather yesterday. A close final estimation should be determined and well publicized. Please keep this thread updated with final totals.

Just read on a news site that Hartford, Conn. had 3,000 The official poice estimate for Hartford, Connecticut was 5,000.
I was there. It was 5,000 pissed off (but well behaved) conservatives. If it weren't for the 60 degree weather, you would have thought you were in the heart of Texas, not New England.
We had the benefit of good weather, a good location and a well organized rally.

Nice job.
Bangor, ME should be included at 400-450 :-)
To: anymouse
For Clear Lake, Texas (southeast Houston) I agree with your 2,000 estimate, all the parking was filled.
Please ping me when you get your photos up.
Note to those counting, Clear Lake is adjacent to Kemah and Seabrook.
Frgds,
