Night 2 of the REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION was at a preliminary 0.3/0.2/0.3, consistent with both Monday’s results and last week’s Democratic Convention Tuesday (and of course sharply down from 2016, as all the Convention ratings have been for both parties). See Mitch Metcalf’s Convention ratings analysis post this afternoon for more detail.
DEMOGRAPHIC DETAIL: For each broadcast program (or hour segment), the chart below displays preliminary live+same day key advertiser demographics (adult 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54 ratings), audience skews (women 18-49, men 18-49 and adults 50+ shares) and total viewership (thousands of people over the age of 2).
Ratings analysis and comparisons follow the chart.
