PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - People in Maine’s largest city are continuing to protest the election of Donald Trump as president of the United States.

About 400 people who marched 2½-miles through Portland on Saturday say they were also promoting volunteerism in the wake of Trump’s election.

Saturday’s event followed a protest march and rally against Trump Friday in Portland by about 200 people.

About 400 people attended a Trump protest Friday in Burlington, Vermont. In Portsmouth, New Hampshire, about 100 people took part Friday in what organizers billed as a rally to promote post-election healing, although some carried anti-Trump signs and chanted “love trumps hate.”

The Portland Press Herald (https://bit.ly/2g65WrC ) reports Saturday the crowd cheered and chanted, “Not my president” and “Love trumps hate.”
