Stamford, CT is the heart of Fairfield County, one of the richest counties in the country and a traditional bastion of Republicans that has turned blue, at least in national elections, because the move to the extreme right taken by the GOP. The march there was overwhelmed by attendees which resulted in the route of the march being way to short. The first marches had already completed their circuit before even half of the crowd had even started. For a small town like Stamford, population of 125,000, this was a pretty impressive turnout. I should also add that the clouds (miraculously?) parted and the sun came out just as the march was starting. I wonder
how Franklin Graham would spin that...
