Donald Trump continues to materially outpace Hillary Clinton in attendance at campaign events through the first 17 days of August.

Trump has now doubled the number of events that Clinton has– Month to date Trump has held 22 events to Clinton’s 11.

But more importantly Trump continues to significantly outpace Hillary in grassroots support. Trump has accumulated more than 110,000 people at his rallies while Clinton has accumulated only a little more than 10,000. Clinton has given speeches to an estimated 14,500 event goers but one of Clinton’s speeches was to the NABJ/NAHJ which was not a Hillary campaign event. This event had an estimated 4,000 in attendance. When considering only Clinton campaign events Hillary has only 10,500 campaign goers in attendance month to date. Of Clinton’s 11 events, 5 have been held in high school gyms which she can’t even fill up.

As a result month to date Trump has more than ten times the number of attendees at his events than Hillary.

Trump continues to smash Clinton in attendance at events, while Hillary continues to take time off.
