Workers' rights group, Jobs with Justice's Ethan Miller said the Washington vigil was meant to show that civil society was resilient.


"It's a hard time for a lot of Americans," he said. "We saw a campaign that was filled with racism and misogyny and whole host of other terrible tactics that ultimately were successful for winning the electoral college."


Trump will head to the White House for talks with President Obama on securing a smooth transition of power of the Presidency, and both houses in Congress.
