Slate magazine saw a sevenfold spike in subscriptions and a boost in traffic the day after Donald Trump was reelected as president, TheWrap has learned.

The 28-year-old online publication’s daily subscription sign-up rate was seven times a normal day on Wednesday, the day after the 2024 Election. On Election Day itself, the spike was fourfold, according to a statement shared with TheWrap.

“We are dedicated to covering this moment with clear-eyed, sharp, and passionate reporting and analysis for our readers and listeners,” Slate editor-in-chief Hillary Frey exclusively told TheWrap.
