  i have made a spreadsheet of the reported number in attendance to the memorial since the first report of 13 people appeared in an 1896 watchtower.. since it can be very hard to find the numbers for the early years (anything previous to 1938), i will slowly make a note of where i found the data.some of the years i had to manually add hundreds of entries, since the wt did not provide the full number.i am building on the statistics of 1988-2013 that appeared here a while ago.soon i will be starting this but for other sets of data: # of publishers, hours, etc...here is the link: link.

  Updated the spreadsheet, you can see the updated spreadsheet HERE.

  It has the sources of the numbers so they can be independently verified.

  It's interesting to see the progress from astronomical growth to a sort of equilibrium being reached.

  Agreed. I would say the growth was exponential from 1944-1977, linear from 1977-1992, and now showing signs of flatlining since 1992. Keep in mind these are long term trends and they are clearly visible in a graph, which I will soon post.

  I have made a spreadsheet of the REPORTED number in attendance to the Memorial since the first report of 13 people appeared in an 1896 Watchtower.

  Since it can be very hard to find the numbers for the early years (anything previous to 1938), I will slowly make a note of where I found the data.
  
  Some of the years I had to manually add hundreds of entries, since the WT did not provide the full number.

  i'm sure many people, republicans included, are shocked at the results of the 2016 presidential election.

  really, wtf!.

  the polls were wrong and although it's tempting to blame voter suppression and fbi interference, that would just avoid looking at the real issues for the loss.

  Minimus,

  Curious as to your reasons for supporting Trump. If you don't want to say them publicly, you can send me a pm. But I really am curious about it.
  
  Nathan, you do have a point. I cannot find any news of large riots when Obama won in 2008. There was a minor one in 2012, but nothing like 2016.

  I really thought that Trump had no chance in hell in winning the presidency because it was so obvious that (in the words of George Carlin) "...the owners of this country don't want that." The powers that be clearly wanted Clinton and Trump winning was a big F-U to the plutocrats.

  Really? This sounds very conspiracy-theory. I could also flip that and say that "the powers that be" wanted Trump.
  
  As to who would be more likely to start a war... who knows. Perhaps Hillary, perhaps Trump. Perhaps we were fucked either way.

  For the rest, their reason seems to be

  1) Pick a conservative value

  2) I hate Hillary.
  
  pretty much.
