On Oct. 31, the weekly pro-Trump “Freedom Rally” saw its largest turnout since it began in July, with the Beverly Hills Police Department (BHPD) placing turnout at 4,000 people. The final rally before Election Day tested the new security measures put in place for Election Week, with BHPD receiving support from the Santa Paula Police Department (SPPD) and two private armed security firms. With only minor scuffles between counter protesters and rally-goers and no arrests, BHPD is calling the first day of Election Week a success.
“We have been absolutely satisfied, and there’s been no issues,”
BHPD Public Information Officer Lt. Max Subin told the Courier. “They are all welcome into our law enforcement family.”
