  • Comment: Notability is almost there, but not quite. The WaPo article and the 19th piece are okay, but #1 is a press announcement, and #3 is an interview, which don't count.

The rallies are organized by Women's March, Abortion Rights Now, Planned Parenthood, ACLU and National Women's Law Center.[2] An estimated 50,000 people are expected to attend the event.[3]

Background

[edit]

On November 7, 2024, following Donald's Trump's projected win as the president-elect of the United States, The Washington Post announced that the Women's March organization had planned a series of protests, in response to his defeat to Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, which is set to take place in Washington, D.C. on January 18, 2025.[2]
