Baltimore
BALTIMORE (AP) - Thousands of mothers and daughters have flooded downtown Baltimore to march for women's rights and criticize President Donald Trump.
The demonstrators marched Saturday as part of women's marches around the world on the first anniversary of Trump's inauguration.
The Baltimore Sun reports that many women said they participated in Baltimore's rally to build on the momentum of last year's historic Women's March on Washington, when hundreds of thousands of people converged to condemn Trump's new presidency.
Saturday's march focused on increasing voter turnout in the 2018 Maryland elections, and to encourage more women to run for public office.
Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh addressed the crowd in front of City Hall. She said: "Let's get our women out to vote."
Marches were also held in Annapolis, Maryland, and Newark, Delaware.
