Thousands(?) of pro-Sanders marchers hit streets of Philly

"PHILADELPHIA — Thousands of demonstrators are taking to Philadelphia's sweltering streets Sunday, cheering, chanting and beating drums in the first major protests ahead of the Democratic National Convention, as the city wilts during a heat wave.

Throngs of Bernie Sanders supporters marched down a main thoroughfare to show their support of him and disdain for Hillary Clinton ahead of the convention.

Chanting "Hell No, DNC, we won't vote for Hillary" and "This is what democracy looks like," the marchers headed from City Hall down Broad Street, the main north-south artery that leads from the city center to the convention site about 4 miles away.

Many carried Sanders signs, and a huge Bernie Sanders puppet was also a part of the festivities.

Police officers rode bicycles along each side of the march and the thousands of protesters cooled off in city fire hydrants that were opened along the road."
