There, fixed it.
Why does this even matter? I feel we are all getting way to hung up on the numbers... is this supposed to mean that this is a comparison to the country at large? DC is STILL in the Northeast.
And given that there is no way to officially count the crowd (the aerial photos don’t convince me since the perspective and locations are so different) I think we’re all best to just let it go.
The truth is that the rally this Saturday broke the Metro record in ridership on Saturday (http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local-beat/Metro-Set-New-Saturday-Record-106410733.html) and a good friend of mine said since his time in living in DC he’s never seen the town so busy...
But again SO WHAT. Do we think this is any real barometer for ANYTHING?
A rock concert isn’t the same thing as political and ideological call to action. Let’s focus on the election tomorrow.
