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)

...what happened to that Ojeda guy? Do we just leave 'em off the list if they admitted voting for the orange douchebag? (Not that I think that would be a bad policy)

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.
