(10,053 posts)1. Thanks for the list!
I know that at this time the plan is to let 20 debate, ten the first night and ten the next - I am curious to see what will happen if many more enter the race (and raise the $ needed to get a spot on debate stage)

Gravel, Ryan and Messam aren't on the candidate preference page. I didn't include Biden on the list since he hasn't announced yet.
