Texas Debate Second Highest Rated
CNN/Univision drew in 7.6 million viewers for last night's Democratic primary debate from UT. It's the second higest rated primary debate yet -- the only debate more-watched than ours was the one in California, starring Leo DiCaprio and Josh Lyman from The West Wing as "audience members".
The debate drew 7,576,000 total viewers; 1,257,000 18-34 viewers; 2,812,000 18-49 viewers and 2,986,000 25-54 viewers. Out of the all 19 debates broadcast this cycle, the Texas debate ranks second in viewership. Not too shabby. Just think, almost eight million people saw a brief shot of State Rep. Craig Eiland standing up in the audience at the conclusion of the broadcast event. (OK was I the only one who saw Craig Eiland?)
