What network is hosting: CNN
Who will qualify: A candidate needs to reach at least 1 percent in three separate qualifying polls. A candidate can also qualify by having at least 65,000 unique donors, with a minimum of 200 donors in 20 states.
Who makes the cut as of right now: Former Vice President Joe Biden, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, California Sen. Kamala Harris, South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, former HUD Secretary Julián Castro, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, entrepreneur Andrew Yang, author Marianne Williamson, and New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand have met both the polling and donor requirements, Vox reports.
Additionally, six other candidates — former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan, former Maryland Rep. John Delaney, California Rep. Eric Swalwell, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, and Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet — have met just the polling requirement.
Who will be on the stage on which night: No more than 20 candidates will be allowed at the debate; assuming there is a pool of 20 again, 10 will debate each night. The lineups will again be randomized.
