Lineup & Details for the January 14 Debate
Tonight’s debate is hosted by CNN and the Des Moines Register. The debate will air from 9 to 11:15 p.m. Eastern on January 14, 2020. There’s a chance it might go a little long.
The following candidates will be in tonight’s debate. There are only six tonight.
- Joe Biden, former Vice President
- Pete Buttigieg, former mayor of South Bend, Indiana
- Amy Klobuchar, Minnesota senator
- Bernie Sanders, Vermont senator
- Tom Steyer, businessman
- Elizabeth Warren, Massachusetts senator
Cory Booker, Tulsi Gabbard, and Andrew Yang did not meet the poll requirements. Michael Bloomberg did not qualify.
To qualify for tonight’s debate, candidates needed to poll at 5 percent or higher in at least four national or early-state polls, or 7 percent or higher in two early-state polls. These must have been from qualifying organizations that released polls between November 14 and January 10. Another requirement was that candidates get 225,000 unique donors at least, which included 1,000 in at least 20 states.
Where the candidates stand during the debate is determined by their polls. Moderators will be Wolf Blitzer, Abby Phillip, and Brianne Pfannenstiel of the Des Moines Register, CNN reported. The debate will be at Drake University.
You can expect the impeachment and impending trial to be a big focus during tonight’s debate. You can also expect them to talk a lot about the Iowa caucus that is taking place in February.
After this, the next debate will be on February 7. ABC News and WMUR-TV and Apple News will host that debate in New Hampshire at St. Anselm College’s Sullivan Arena.
