CNN’s Kamala Harris Town Hall Drew At Least 3.2 Million Viewers, Early Numbers Show
CNN‘s town hall with Kamala Harris on Wednesday drew at least 3.2 million viewers, giving the network a big bounce from its regular audience in the 9 p.m. time period.
The viewership likely will rise when final numbers come in later this afternoon.
That figure is still well below the 7.8 million who watched Fox News’ Bret Baier’s sit-down with Harris last week on the network’s Special Report.
The CNN event last night lasted just over an hour and was moderated by Anderson Cooper in Pennsylvania. CNN also offered a town hall to Donald Trump, but his campaign never accepted. Trump earlier rejected a second debate with Harris, who had accepted. That event would have been held on Wednesday evening and would have been hosted by CNN.
