Official sources (Madison PD) estimate the crowd at 85,000. I do not think that is accurate. It seemed much larger than that to me. Walking was cheek-by-jowl both in the street and on the sidewalk for the entire 8-block square around the Capitol, and when the speakers were holding forth on the State Street side, the crowd was PACKED in like sardines from W. Washington all the way around to Wisconsin Avenue and even most of the way to N. Hamilton. Here are the pics. You decide. Note the one looking down State Street. There are thick crowds all the way down to the 400 block.
I'll have tractor pictures and other rally shots up later. First I have a wall-running rehearsal.
