Despite yesterday's dozens of intimidating house searches...and recently approved greatly increased fines...tens of thousands...perhaps as many as 70,000...showed up to rally in Moscow despite a heavy rainfall.

Many prominent opposition leaders were absent because of police questioning.
Police security was said to be lighter...and no arrests were reported.
