A Dont Let Trump Steal The Election rally began outside the building Wednesday. Organizers said theyre concerned that President Donald Trump wont respect elections results if he loses.<\/p>\n
The group left the courthouse around 6 p.m. and began marching through downtown Pittsburgh. The peaceful rally ended around 8 p.m., but a small group broke off and continued marching. Pittsburgh Public Safety says three people were arrested.<\/p>\n
Officials say the group overturned garbage cans, knocked over traffic signs and one person spray-painted the City-County Building. <\/p>\n
Public Safety respects everyones First Amendment rights, but causing destruction will not be tolerated, Pittsburgh Public Safety said on Twitter.<\/p>\n
There was a heavy police presence at the City-County Building following the incident. <\/p>\n
Around 4 p.m., several organizations joined forces to demand that every vote is counted following Election Day. Groups like Pittsburgh United, SEIU Healthcare Pennsylvania and several faith-based groups were downtown to push the message that every single vote in Pennsylvania needs to be counted.<\/p>\n
Organizers say the election has been driven by misinformation and contradictory reports from the beginning. Organizers also say people need to decide who their leaders are.<\/p>\n
