Doors opened shortly before 11 a.m., and Sanders took the stage just after 2 p.m. The event drew 1,800 people, according to Sean Wright, who manages The Grand. The theater's 1,200 seats were filled to capacity, while a separate overflow area was prepared to hold hundreds more

6. Trump may squeeze in by not being specific.

The problem may be that Trump is using an old campaign tactic. Many people may vote for him without ever knowing what policies he supports. He sells hope; 'make america great again', and doesn't really offer detailed policies. He claims that the world will heal itself just because he is President. He attacks anyone that disagrees with him and says whatever people want to hear regardless of what he believes.

They were scheduled across the street from Trumps rally and at the same time.

In order to preserve safety, Bernie moved his at the last minute.

Bernie Sanders' campaign on Monday announced a change of venue for its Milwaukee rally, which had previously been scheduled to take place later in the evening across the street from an event for Donald Trump.
The campaign event was originally scheduled for the BMO Harris Bradley Center, home of the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks, across the street from the Milwaukee Theatre, where a rally for Trump was scheduled for the same time. On Monday morning, however, the campaign announced that the event would now be held at the Wisconsin Center, which is separated by a city block from the Milwaukee Theatre.

So yeah, last minute venue and time change may have contributed plus this was a much smaller venue than the Bucks' center.

Not bad. In this one week he has spoken before more than 35,000 people.

How many did a Hill speak to in WI this week? Guess that means she won't be President.

I love your logic.
