NEW YORK (WKOW) -- More adults visited President Barack Obama's campaign website in January than the four Republican hopefuls combined.

Nielson Company analyzed voter-aged traffic to the presidential campaign websites.

About 4.2 million people visited Obama's site. About 773,000 went to Mitt Romney's site, while some 830,000 people visited Ron Paul's site. Newt Gingrich's website trafficked about 609,000 visitors.

Gingrich's audience was the most affluent and educated, with half having at least a bachelor's degree and 27 percent making over $100,000 per year.

More than half of Obama's visitors were over age 50 compared to 34 percent for Romney.
