Andrew Yang Makes Next Presidential Debate


The Democratic National Committee (DNC) announced Two Pathways to Qualifying for the Next Presidential Primary Debate.

The Debate takes place in New Hampshire on Feb. 7th, will be held at St. Anslem College, just outside Manchester.

It will be Co-Sponsored by ABC News, WMUR-TV in Manchester, NH, and Apple News.

Candidates can Qualify by:

- Hitting roughly the same Polling and Donor Marks set for the January Debate. Candidates need to hit 5% in at least Four Polls Approved by the DNC, or 7% in Two Early-State Polls, and received Donations from 225,000 Unique Individuals. Unlike Previous Debates, Polls from Iowa Won't Count toward Qualifying. The Only Polls that will Count are National, New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina Surveys from a List of Pre-Approved Pollsters.

- Winning at least One Pledged Delegate to the DNC out of the Iowa Caucuses on Feb. 3rd.

The Polling Window has also Shifted since the Debate in Iowa. Polls must Publicly be Released between Dec. 13th and Feb. 6th, the day before the New Hampshire Debate.

The New Thresholds are unlikely to Winnow the Debate Stage any further, unless a Candidate Drops Out of the Race on their Own Volition before Feb. 7th.

All Six of the Candidates who Participated in the January Debate: Joe Biden, Pete Buttigieg, Amy Klobuchar, Bernie Sanders, Tom Steyer, and Elizabeth Warren, have Already Qualified for the Next Debate.

Andrew Yang, who for the First time in January Failed to Qualify for a Debate, has Qualified for this Debate.

There is still the possibility of getting a Pledged Delegate out of Iowa for the other Candidates, including Bloomberg.
