Anti-Trump Rallies Draw Thousands To South Jersey

MOORESTOWN, NJ — The latest installment of "No Kings" brought attendance numbers beyond what organizers anticipated on Saturday, Moorestown Democrats said.

The group was planning for 200 people at "No Kings 3" when more than 1,500 showed up on the green across from Moorestown Library.

Leaders called their efforts a response to "rampant corruption and attack on the rule of law...under this administration."

Along with Mayor Quinton Law, Senator Troy Singleton also spoke on Saturday to the crowd.

In Camden, large crowds of marchers lined the streets from Roosevelt Plaza Park to the end at Wiggins Waterfront Park.

"THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE," event organizers and social change advocates, Cooper River Indivisible, said on Facebook.

Rallies were also held Berlin, Bridgeton, Glassboro, and Pine Hill.

"No Kings is about standing up for our democracy and making it clear that no leader is above the people," the advocates said previously, leading up to the first two "No Kings" demonstrations.
