The numbers are in, and the viewership of the Democratic National Convention blew last month’s Republican National Convention out of the water.
Early numbers by Nielsen Fast Nationals indicate that the final night of the DNC garnered 26.20 million viewers across 15 networks, compared to night four of the 2024 RNC Night 4 at 25.4 million viewers.
The DNC drew in more viewers across 12 different cable and broadcasting news networks all four nights of the convention. 20 million on Monday, 20.6 million viewers on Tuesday, 20.2 million on Wednesday, and the estimated 26.20 on Thursday.
By contrast, the RNC drew in 18.1 million, 14.8 million, 18 million, and 25.4 million viewers on each of its respective four nights.
