MEET THE PRESS WITH CHUCK TODD is the most-watched Sunday show across the board season-to-date, with more Americans tuning into the network broadcast ahead of Election Day than any other show, according to Nielsen Media Research.

Delivering 1.230 million viewers in the key demo this past Sunday, Nov. 6, MTP topped its competition by double-digits: +22 percent more than CBS "Face the Nation" and +29 percent more than ABC "This Week." Not only did MTP increase its A25-54 viewership by +16 percent compared to this time last year, the program was up eight percent week-over-week.

3.938 million Americans tuned into MTP, a seven percent increase compared to the week prior. In total viewers, MTP beat ABC by seven percent. For the second week in a row, just one percent separated MTP from CBS' half-hour program in total viewers, although the show rated for 16 minutes more and does not benefit from a network-wide lead-in program.

MTP grew +15 percent in total viewers compared to the same Sunday last year, marking the largest year-over-year growth among the networks.

In the influential Washington, D.C. market, MTP continued to dominate its competition, marking its 74th straight broadcast win in total viewers.

An additional 816,000 total viewers and 167,000 A25-54 viewers watched MTP through a rebroadcast on MSNBC.
