Super Tuesday didn’t draw a massive audience to the broadcast networks’ coverage, at least according to preliminary numbers.
NBC’s coverage of the Democratic primary bonanza, which saw former Vice President Joe Biden surge back into the race, averaged around 2.8 million viewers in the fast nationals, followed by ABC with 2.7 million and CBS with 2.5 million. Overall, the networks drew just over 8 million viewers with their combined coverage.

A resurgent Joe Biden scored victories from Texas to Massachusetts on Super Tuesday, revitalizing a presidential bid that was teetering on the edge of disaster just days earlier.
