About 400 people. Standing room only. All with only about two days notice! The woman who Rachel Maddow a few days ago showed a clip of Faso hugging, with him promising to medically have her back only to betray her, was there and she spoke too. She was amazing. So was the Congressman. He organized the crowd to tweet Faso at his out of town fundraiser - and it made the trending tweet list. I have to run to work for a bit now - may be able to write more about it later.
