WASHINGTON (AP) — Nearly eight years since its historic first march, the Women’s March is returning to the nation’s capital just before President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration. Rebranded and reorganized, Saturday’s rally has a new name — the People’s March — as a means to broaden support. The march is expected to be about one-tenth that size of the first Women’s March in 2017 and comes amid a restrained moment of reflection as many progressive voters navigate feelings of exhaustion, disappointment and despair after Vice President Kamala Harris’ loss in November. A goal of the organizers is to help progressive voters find their political homes in various participating organizations at the local, state and national level.
