(13,712 posts)25. Glens Falls, NY
Population: 14.5K
Crowd estimate: 2K
10 am-12pm at City Park.
At the "Hands Off" protest in the spring, same venue, I had been amazed by the crowd size but today's was double or triple that. The estimate is a rough one from one of the organizers around 11 am. There's a large parking lot next to the Queensbury Hotel that was sparsely used in the spring event but was packed today. Protesters were gathered in the park, around the Civil War monument island and along both sides of Glen Street downtown. Lot's of honking cars but no engine racing Trumpsters, that I could see, like we had in the spring. Police had a large presence but were cool.
