The vice presidential debate between Joe Biden and Sarah Palin drew in just less than 70 million viewers. Preliminary overnight household figures from Nielsen show that 45% of U.S. households were watching the debate on ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, PBS, CNN, Fox News, CSPAN, MSNBC, CNBC, Telemundo and Telefutura. This is a big jump over the 31.6 overnight rating for the first presidential debate, which aired last Friday and ended up averaging 52.4 million viewers.
