NEW YORK (CBSMiami/AP) — More viewers tuned in to watch Donald Trump's convention speech last week than Hillary Clinton's - at least on television.

The Nielsen company estimated that 29.8 million people watched Clinton's acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention on Thursday night on the commercial networks. That fell short of the 32.2 million people who watched Trump speak to the Republicans a week before.

That came despite the Democrats reaching more people than the Republicans on each of the first three days of their respective conventions.
