Candidates were able to qualify by either raising donations from 65,000 donors (and a minimum of 200 per state from 20 states) or polling at 1 percent in qualified polls that ended two weeks before the debates. The candidates for tonight are Julian Castro, Beto O’Rourke, John Delaney, Bill de Blasio, Tulsi Gabbard, Amy Klobuchar, Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren, Tim Ryan and Jay Inslee.
The candidates’ positions on stage were determined based on their polls, so that the top polling candidates would be in the center of the stage. That’s why Senator Warren is in the center of the stage tonight. The lineup from left to right tonight is de Blasio, Ryan, Castro, Booker, Warren, O’Rourke, Klobuchar, Gabbard, Inslee, and Delaney.
