The DNC announced requirements to qualify for the January debate in Iowa.
Candidates must have at least 225,000 donors and reach 5% in at least four national or early state polls. Candidates can also qualify by reaching 7% in just two early state polls.
Based on these standards, Axios reports that only Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar would currently make the debate. Tom Steyer and Andrew Yang, who took part in last night’s debate, have not yet met the polling requirement.
