ATLANTA (AP) — Ten Democratic presidential candidates have qualified for next Wednesday’s debate in Atlanta.
The Democratic National Committee has confirmed the participants who have met polling and grassroots fundraising thresholds.
They are: former Vice President Joe Biden; New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker; Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana; Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard; California Sen. Kamala Harris; Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar; Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders; billionaire activist Tom Steyer of California; Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren; and entrepreneur Andrew Yang of New York.
That means there’ll be two fewer candidates on stage than there were for the October debate in Ohio.
