I'm guessing there were maybe 30-40 people seated during the announcement, and another 20-30 standing behind? The media was mostly local TV news crews. I believe I was the only national news person there. I found out where the announcement was at 10:30 am and jumped in my car 20 min later.

This was the setup before the speakers got here. The announcement took place in this warehouse-ish section of the Kenworth of Indianapolis semi dealership. It was 92 C outside and the space was only kind of air conditioned. Those are red, white, and blue semis in the background
