President of the Catalan National Assembly (ANC), Carme Forcadell, said that two volunteers will visit each of the "3 million houses" throughout Catalonian. Meanwhile in Barcalona, hundreds of pro-independence protesters rallied despite the rain to protest against the suspension of consultations over the independence of Catalonia. Protesters shouted slogans such as "we will vote" and "independence." Several protests in front of city councils took place simultaneously around Catalonia. The consultation, due to take place November 9, was automatically suspended Monday after the Spanish Constitutional Tribunal accepted an appeal presented by the Spanish government to block it. The Catalan Government has been forced to suspend the institutional political campaign, although many political parties and associations have announced their intention to continue with their campaigns. According to police estimates, around two million people gathered in Barcelona on September 11 to celebrate the National Day of Catalonia and demand a referendum on Catalonian independence.
