1. Thanks.....was wondering how we'll find out the real numbers....or at least close to real numbers.

How did this rally compare to the other two rallies???

4. They will all be estimates. Indivisible provided links to register

But registration was not required (I didn’t register).

6. Looks like the biggest to date

Numbers at No Kings rallies to date
First one June 2025 - 4-6 million; October 2025 7 million.
This is the biggest to date.
Bravo!

9. #1 was 5 million, #2 was 7 million.

17. It will be hard to tell.

My niece picked my spouse up and took her to the rally. I had another obligation for the first hour - but joined after that. By the time I got there, my niece had left to pick up her daughter and grandson and take them to a different rally.

So if someone was doing head counts by images my niece and I would have made one person (since our attendance at the first rally didn't overlap - but an image would have seen one head representing the two of us). But she also attended a second rally - does that count as two attendees? Or just one since she went to both rallies. (There were 3 within an easy drive from my house - and I know some people attended the first from 11-1, the second from 1-3, and the third from 3-5.

2. HUGE

That’s three plus times the entire JA population. Let that sink in.
A great turn out
Rec for visibility

5. Prof. Timothy Snyder said when participants exceed 3% of the adult

Population, a turning point is reached—leaders later are kicked out, iirc.

We’re getting close to that, if we haven’t reached it yet.

7. This source says 3.5% of total population:

13. That would require 12 million

30% more

14. Yup. Didn't reach the goal they were hoping for.
