Tea Party Total Head Count Thread (Post Your Attendance Numbers Here)
Wednesday, April 15, 2009 | Kristinn

Posted on 04/15/2009 3:08:47 PM PDT by kristinn

I'm hoping to be able to ascertain an overall national figure of attendance at the tea parties today by asking Freepers to post their crowd estimates on this thread.

I'm also asking that the thread be kept to just the numbers, no photos, etc., but if you want to link back to photos in your crowd estimate that's fine.

Please give the location and number of participants.

I'll go first:

Melbourne, FL - 1000.

You’re Welcome! Also Corning had 1000 people, and had 687 volunteers sign up from that crowd, which is probably where the 700 figure came from.

Folks, this thing is bigger than we even thought. Keep those reports coming in. If you know of, or hear of, a tea party, check Henchster’s list to see if it has been listed.
He is doing a great job of coordinating the information. We want the largest numbers we can get before we start putting it out to the media.

Henchster, I really believe that yours is the most comprehensive chart out there. Let’s keep it going until there are no more reports coming in. Then we can shoot it out to the conservative media.

Fort Scott, KS — 215 people signed

Iola, KS — 250 -300

Independence, KS — 137 signed in, 150 attended

Mound City, KS — 80

Chanute, KS —60

Dodge City, KS — 120 (the 20 is incorrect, it was my original estimate before I found a newspaper article)

Dodge City, KS — 120

“The audience of about 120 were appreciative and responsive.”

The picture at the link cleary shows far more than 20.

THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Try going to the web site of the local newspapers of those places. If you can find an article or ad about the impending tea party, there might be a phone number to call for information. Call that number. That is the way I got the count for Beckley, WV, and met a very nice lady in the bargain.
