Report: Only Nine Democrat Candidates Are Qualified for Upcoming Debate
Breitbart ^ | 15 Aug 2019 | PENNY STARR

Posted on 08/15/2019 5:13:39 PM PDT by conservative98

According to its tally, the nine candidates who have secured a spot on the debate stage on Sept. 12 and perhaps Sept. 13 in Houston are: Joe Biden, Pete Buttigieg, Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker, Beto O’Rourke, Amy Klobuchar, and Andrew Yang.

“Tom Steyer’s campaign announced Tuesday morning that it had hit the 130,000 donor mark,” the website reported. “He now needs just one qualifying poll to make the third debate.”

Julian Castro is also close to qualifying, just needing a 2 percent ranking in one more poll, FiveThirtyEight reported.

New Age guru and author Marianne Williamson and Washington Governor Jay Inslee have both reportedly surpassed the 100,000 donor mark but need 30,000 more donors to qualify for the debate, and neither has hit 2 percent in any of the approved polls.

For the rest of the candidates, it may be the end of the campaign trail because the don’t have the donors or the poll rankings necessary, including Kirsten Gillibrand, Michael Bennet, Steve Bullock, Bill de Blasio, John Delaney, Seth Moulton, Tim Ryan, John Hickenlooper, and Joe Sestak.

I didn’t know Joe Sestak had actually gotten in the race.
I heard that he ‘was thinking it over’.

DeBlasio needs to pack it up too.

I particularly despise Jelly-brain. She is simply a vacuous twit who is completely devoid of any discernible intellect.

Tulsi didn’t even make the cut to be listed in the news story! LOL.

Without Tulsi’s oiled chest, I’m not watching.
Sparticus oiling his empty head is NOT a replacement.

harris may be ‘qualified for the debate’ but she is still ineligible for the presidency
so why not replace her with someone who is eligible

the DNC debate will look a bit less like a stupid circus act this way

The first night I saw Tulsi Gabbard and listened I knew she was going to be a goner.

It’s a shame that Tulsi Gabbard is not on that list. She at least has some flashes of sanity.

Which should tell you something about the Democrats and the MSM.
