Tulsi Gabbard Refuses To Attend Next Debate

Even If She Qualifies
The presidential candidate threatened to skip the October debate before reversing course and showing up.

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) announced Monday that she will skip the next Democratic presidential primary debate even if she makes the cut.

“For a number of reasons, I have decided not to attend the December 19th ‘debate’ ― regardless of whether or not there are qualifying polls,” she tweeted. “I instead choose to spend that precious time directly meeting with and hearing from the people of New Hampshire and South Carolina.”
