Here Are The Post-Election Protests And Events Planned Around D.C. This Week

Following a packed day of voting and a night of protests, and amid a still-undecided presidential election, activists continue to plan protests around the D.C. region.
Last night’s protests remained relatively peaceful without the fuel of a decisive Trump or Biden victory. There were several clashes with police and four arrests, but the majority of the night was marked by dancing, music and short marches through Black Lives Matter Plaza and the neighboring streets.
Most of the upcoming events include anti-Trump messaging and demands to count all votes nationally, as well as celebrations of Black life and calls to end local police brutality.

Hold The Line rally: In Northern Virginia, activists from a wide range of left-leaning organization with gather Wednesday at 5 p.m. across from the Court House Metro station in Arlington to demand all votes be counted. Attendees are asked to bring masks.
