The total number of lenders was among various viewers and outreach statistics. Biden’s campaign touted Friday after a convention that, despite being virtual, the campaign said that led to huge numbers of people seeking information from the campaign and the party about votes.
Over four days, about 122 million people watched the convention – including 85.1 million on television and 35.5 million livestream views combined across the online platforms of organizations that streamed the convention, the Biden campaign said.
The Democratic National Convention’s Biden campaign and social media platforms – including YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and Twitter – saw a combination of 128.7 million video views and 31.4 million engagements, when times someone shared, clicked or commented on them content.
The Biden campaign said more than 1.1 million people had 3,303 texts, the number that speakers and moderators cited throughout the convention, allowing Democrats to help people register to vote.
IWillVote.com, the website of the Democratic National Commission that helps Americans register to vote and find out how to request absentee ballots or vote in person, had 700,000 unique viewers – as well as separate people who website visits – and 1.6 million page views over the span of four days. The site’s traffic on the last day of the convention exceeded its traffic on the day of the 2018 midterm elections, Biden’s campaign said.
“We have re-intimidated and rediscovered our convention to reach, engage and mobilize Americans everywhere while showing the positive, hopeful, and courageous vision for Joe Biden for the country,” said Biden Campaign Manager Jen O’Malley Dillon in a statement. “Our convention sent an overwhelming message to the millions of Americans who participated throughout the week: vote, vote, vote.”
Biden’s campaign said other moments included average Americans – including 11-year-old Estela Juarez, whose mother was deported; a New York Times security guard who met Biden in an elevator and officially nominated him Tuesday night; and Kristin Urquiza, whose Trump-backed father died of coronavirus – were among those who garnered the most media attention.
