“Leftists and online trolls doing a victory lap, thinking they somehow impacted rally attendance, don’t know what they’re talking about or how our rallies work,” Mr. Parscale said. “Registering for a rally means you’ve RSVP’d with a cellphone number and we constantly weed out bogus numbers, as we did with tens of thousands at the Tulsa rally, in calculating our possible attendee pool.” ...
The adviser said that the data could be put into the system to “tighten up the formula used to determine projected attendance for rallies.”


So, they just have to take the number of RSVPs and multiply by 0.62% to get actual attendance estimates?
