Early data comes as Trump reportedly concerned Kamala Harris nomination speech will outshine his from RNC
The first night of the ongoing Democratic National Convention in Chicago had signficantly better ratings than the opening of the Republican National Convention last month, according to overnight data.
The DNC had 11.4 percent of sampled households watching in 44 major metro areas across seven networks on Monday, compared with the RNC’s 9.4 percent rating, a difference of over 20 percent, according to TV analyst Michael Mulvihill, president of insights and analytics at FOX Sports, FOX Entertainment, and Tubi.
In a statement on X, the analyst warned that the data was just preliminary.
I’m voting for Harris. I don’t need to watch a pep rally to convince me.
Yeah, all she has to do is be a functional human being, and she’s already demonstrated that.
Still needs to campaign hard in battleground states for down ballots.
But this isn’t useless, the people tuning in to conventions are already voting for that party. But they’re the ones knocking on doors, phone banking, and other important volunteer work.
Their engagement is very important, and that’s who conventions cater too.
egads!!!
So am I. But what are we doing to convince others, especially others in battlefront states? Michelle reminded me about that. And honestly it was just refreshing to hear political speech that wasn’t making me cringe or retch.
