DNC October Debate To Be Held On Single Night

That means at least 12 presidential candidates will crowd the stage.

By /

The Democratic National Committee plans to hold its fourth presidential debate on just one night, rather than breaking it into two nights.

Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii will share the stage with Joe Biden, Cory Booker, Julián Castro, Pete Buttigieg, Kamala Harris, Beto O’Rourke, Bernie Sanders, Amy Klobuchar, Tom Steyer, Elizabeth Warren and Andrew Yang.

Should any other Democrat meet the polling and donor threshold by Oct. 1, they could still be invited to the show, too, although that appears unlikely.

There are currently 19 Democrats still in the running, as several candidates have already dropped out.

The debate is in Ohio on Oct. 15. CNN and The New York Times are the hosts.
