A town hall with Democratic 2020 presidential hopeful Sen. Kamala Harris televised by CNN on Monday drew record viewership for the cable news network, the network said Tuesday.

CNN announced Tuesday that the broadcast was the “most watched cable news single candidate election town hall ever,” according to Nielsen data. The live event averaged 1.957 million viewers, a figure far greater than CNN’s previous four town halls, which attracted an average audience of 1.119 million each, the network said in a statement.
