Leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is holding a ‘sold out’ rally in Columbus, Ohio Monday evening.

15,000 supporters are expected to attend the event at the Greater Columbus Convention Center.

The Columbus Dispatch reported the last tickets were claimed Friday night, three days before the Monday night rally.

Going to Ohio, home of one of the worst presidential candidates in history–Kasich. Can't debate, loves #ObamaCare–dummy! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 23, 2015

“Going to Ohio, home of one of the worst presidential candidates in history–Kasich. Can’t debate, loves #ObamaCare–dummy!”

(Live stream of rally at 7 p.m. on YouTube.)

A bunch of liberals announced online their plans to sabotage attendance at Trump’s rally by placing orders for the free tickets available at the Eventbrite site and then not showing up. (Side note, even though the event was deemed a ‘sell out’, Eventbrite still was offering tickets to the rally as of 5:30 p.m. EST, ninety minutes before the rally. Probably tickets not claimed that were sent to bogus email addresses.)

A Periscope video here taken by Andy Chow of Ohio Public Radio shows thousands of people walking in an orderly manner on their way in to the Trump rally.

A photo taken a few minutes before the doors opened at 5 p.m. EST shows the size of the room Trump is expected to fill.
