PORT ANGELES — Demonstrators turned out across the North Olympic Peninsula over the weekend as part of the nationwide “No Kings” rallies.
Organizers say roughly 3,700 people gathered in Sequim on Saturday, lining Washington street with signs calling for the protection of democratic norms and opposing what they describe as authoritarian leadership.
In Port Angeles, about 500 people showed up outside the Clallam County Courthouse. Participants there echoed similar concerns, waving signs and engaging passing traffic.
Locally, the events remained peaceful, with no major incidents reported.
