The final night of the 2024 Democratic National Convention attracted 26.2 million viewers, peaking at 28.9 million during Vice President Kamala Harris's acceptance speech, surpassing the Republican National Convention's audience of 25.4 million during Donald Trump's speech. The Democratic convention averaged over 20 million viewers each night, with Thursday's ratings marking a significant increase of 30% compared to the previous day. MSNBC emerged as the leading network for coverage, attracting 6.53 million total viewers. Despite speculation about a potential musical guest, such as Beyoncé, the night featured notable appearances from figures like Oprah Winfrey and Michelle Obama. Overall, this year's convention viewership showed a small uptick, reflecting heightened political engagement amidst a contentious election cycle. Notably, Harris's speech highlighted her working-class roots and warned against a second Trump presidency.
