Bernie Sanders rally at Washington Square Park is epic. Broke record for people at this historic park. 30,000 people! #FeelTheBern

Someone on Reddit posted the NYPD reported 48,000 (!), but didn't post proof of that, so I'll go with
Cenk's number for now.

Not just the park is packed, but so are all the streets!

2. NYPD says more than that - something in the 40,000s (can't find the link)

3. Yeah, I saw 48,000 posted on Reddit, but without a link.

4. If Bernie's campaign has one failing it's inability to book big enough venues.

Even when those venues are open parks.

16. Ha! Good one.

5. I tend to believe the larger number

because there were 27k in L.A. and this looks much larger.

7. As a long time demonstrator in NYC - if the NYPD says there were more people than your group does -

your group is wrong, because the NYPD undercounts. I have never known this to happen before.

6. Just heard on Bernie2016.TV 27,000 fit in the park itself, but the overflow makes it 50,000!!

That's INCREDIBLE!

9. Those that ignore this movement do so at their own peril. Go ahead and use pepper spray,

beat us with clubs, arrest hundreds, thousands, but we won't be deterred. The Rich Fat Cats that Clinton serves have already taken too much from us. Fuck them and their minions. We've had enough.

We want fair elections

We want Big Money out of our government

We want an economy that works for all the people and not just the Rich Fat Cats.

We want every American to have access to affordable health care.

We want to see the 50,000,000 in poverty given a fair chance to survive.

We want to see that our infant mortality rate decreases.

Every Democrat should agree with the above, but not the Clinton supporters. They want to see the Clintons wealth reach a billion, and more profits for Goldman-Sachs. Mammon: The greedy pursuit of wealth. Yeah, that's the ticket.

11. This is what all the streets around the park look like

12. OMG!

I believe the 50,000 number! That-is-incredible!

Thank you, NY!
