Washington crowd estimated at 800,000...
March for Our Lives organizers estimate 800,000 protesters attended the gun-control demonstration in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, Jessica Durando reports on usatoday.com.
If they are correct, the event would be the largest single-day protest in the history of the nation's capital, Durando wrote.
The total is bigger than the inaugural Women's March, which brought 500,000 to D.C., according to the Washington Post, Durando added.
The number doesn't include large rallies in cities such as Boston, Houston, Minneapolis and Parkland, Fla, the site of the Valentine's Day attack at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School that left 17 people dead, Durando noted.
