“Just four candidates appear to have qualified so far for the third Republican presidential debate in Miami on Nov. 8, half the number that made it to the first and second debates earlier this year,” the New York Times reports.
They are Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy and Chris Christie.
“Donald Trump, the clear front-runner in polling and fund-raising, did not participate in the first two debates, and is unlikely to take part in the third.”
Dave Weigel reports that Tim Scott says he’s also qualified.
