Hundreds of supporters continue to gather at the Labor Temple in Wausau for a campaign stop by presidential hopeful Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Among the crowd, estimated at about 400 people in the main hall, are a large number of blue-collar workers and voters over 40 years old, reflecting Clinton’s Democratic base.

In addition, a large number of women have brought their daughters to see Clinton, the first woman with a legitimate chance of winning the White House.

In addition to those awaiting Clinton’s arrival in the Labor Temple’s main hall are hundreds more supporters in a spill-over room and outside the building at 318 S. Third Ave.
