Six candidates were invited to next week's debate, one fewer than in December.
Six candidates have been invited to participate in next week's presidential primary debate in Iowa, the smallest debate stage yet, the Democratic National Committee announced Saturday.
To land an invite to the debate, candidates needed to hit 5 percent in four polls approved by the DNC, either nationally or in one of the four early states or 7 percent in DNC-approved polls conducted in the early states.Yang’s campaign said he easily cleared the donor threshold.
The debate starts at 9 p.m. Eastern Time from Drake University in Des Moines, airing on CNN and streaming online. Internal polls do not count toward debate qualification, and it would be incredibly unusual for a party committee to conduct polling for public consumption, as the Yang campaign requested the DNC do.
The decision has irked some of the other contenders, who argue he is running an imperial campaign where he doesn’t engage his rivals or defend his ideas .
