The Democratic National Convention (DNC) drew roughly 20 million viewers Monday night, per Nielsen. Like the Republican National Convention (RNC) last month, night 1 ratings for the DNC were up slightly from 2020, but were down significantly (22%) from 2016.
Why it matters: Monday marked President Biden’s final convention as a Democratic Party leader, but his speech began late on the East Coast, which may have impacted viewership.
Zoom in: The event was carried live on 13 cable and broadcast networks, including ABC, CBS, NBC, Scripps News, Univision, CNN, CNNe, FOX Business, FOX News Channel, MSNBC, Newsmax, NewsNation and PBS.
Zoom out: The first night of the DNC had more viewers than the first three nights of the RNC, which drew 18.13 million, 14.81 million and 17.97 million viewers, respectively.
The big picture: Like the RNC and every major live political TV event, the vast majority (76%) of voters who watched the convention live on Monday were over the age of 55, per Nielsen.
