There appears to be at least 5000 of Tea Party Groups in all 50 states. Many of our 3007 counties have Tea Parties and many of our 3000 larger cities have Tea Parties as well. Most rural county Tea Parties have monthly meetings with speakers and programs covering our issues and their agenda items.

Delaware 9, North Dakota 8, South Dakota 8, Rhode Island 8, Hawaii 7.
Tea Party Patriots claim to be the largest Tea Party organization, but they don’t list them on a map.  If they have as many as Tea Party.Net, we could guess they have 2500.
Tea Party.Org is a new website, but doesn’t appear to have local Tea Party Groups registered.
The Tea Party Express has a website, but doesn’t report how many groups they have.
The number of 9/12 groups is not listed on the 9/12 website and the number of Campaign for Liberty groups are not listed, but these groups are active.
The Libertarian Party estimates 330,811 registered voters in the US.
There are many other conservative organizations and websites like Grassfire, Americans for Prosperity and others. There are also many other conservative single issue organizations and websites like American Policy Center, Agenda 21 News and Democrats Against Agenda 21 and others. 
There are 3007 counties in the US.  Most counties have Taxpayer Associations and similar groups. The National Taxpayer association estimates 362,000 members. There are 35,000 cities in the US the Libertarian Party estimates 330,811 registered voters in the US.
There appears to be over 10,000 volunteer conservative organizations in the US., working on the same issues and forming coalitions to do this.
