Last night’s CNN GOP debate was third most watch debate of the season, pulling in 18 million viewers. CNN of course is lucky if they get 18 million viewers for an entire month, let alone two hours for a debate, so they are probably wetting themselves.
CNN debate averaged 18 million viewers, with 3.1 million livestreams.

18 million viewers for CNN debate last night

CNN hit the jackpot in ratings for the Las Vegas debate. But until another plane disappears, this is pretty much it for CNN. In January there are two GOP debates, one on Fox Business, the other on Fox News. Something tells me the one on Fox News with air head Megyn Kelly will break the record of the first GOP debate on Fox News which got 25 million viewers.
Imagine how many viewers these debates would get if they would just wipe out the retreads like Bush, Kasich and Christie, none of whom I would ever cast a vote for.
