Well, what is the significance of the difference?
National polling pretty much says that the Democrats and Republicans are pretty much even in preference...within the statistical margin of error. So obviously, the viewership of the respective conventions "don't mean shit" when it comes to voter preference.
Neither convention had any electoral significance, which used to be the whole purpose of the things, so in my view the only reason to watch was morbid curiosity, or possible interest in what a particular speaker might have had to say.
I personally can't think of any significance whatever to the viewership numbers. Could it have something to do with what programming was available elsewhere?
"Citygator," you brought it up. There is no correlation with actual voter preferences, so WTF? Who cares, and why? You apparently think that it has some electoral significance, but the numbers don't indicate that. In fact, until the Harris woman actually has to speak coherently in something other than a friendly venue, none of it means anything. Any jag-off can read what someone else has written from a TelePrompter. Do you disagree?
The convention ends, Harris still hasn't spoken off-prompter, and we have her food price fixing and the jobs report to deal with.
Democrats are trying to sell "vibes". Vibes don't put food in your stomach.
