i say swears online posted:

there's an open seat from swalwell quitting too

it was filled by bullock

raw donor # is the least important metric for qualification according to the clowns at the dnc, if someone doesn't add him to an approved poll this week where he gets 1% he won't make the cut. He just needs 1 poll, though, and he'll bump de blasio, bennet, or bullock assuming their 1% stays the same. Whichever of the three has the lowest average to the nearest tenth or the least # of polls (bullock right now).

i have to imagine there will be several polls this weekend before the cut off and it would be absolutely criminal if they left him off considering he will have the donors this afternoon. but im sure they don't want him attacking people on the stage, so who knows

Crossposting from the primary thread but Gravel won't be in the debates, he needs another after Swalwell to drop out, and that's most definitely not going to happen

dnc's debate qualification rules and the weirdos that keep the chart at wikipedia up to date

https://democrats.org/press/dnc-announces-details-for-the-first-two-presidential-primary-debates/ posted:

c) If fewer than 20 candidates qualify for the debate by meeting both the Polling and Grassroots Fundraising Method and fewer than 20 candidates have qualified for the debate under the Polling Method, then every candidate who has qualified using the Polling Method will be invited to participate in the debate and the remainder of the 20 slots will be filled by candidates who have qualified under the Grassroots Fundraising Method in descending order based on the highest number of unique donors.

gravel needs some polls or he gets bumped, there are already 20 candidates who have qualified by polls.

has to be from a shortlist, sadly.

Qualifying polls will be limited to those sponsored by one or more of the following organizations/institutions:Associated Press, ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Des Moines Register, Fox News, Las Vegas Review Journal, Monmouth University, NBC News, New York Times, National Public Radio (NPR), Quinnipiac University, Reuters, University of New Hampshire, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Washington Post, Winthrop University. Any candidate’s three qualifying polls must be conducted by different organizations, or if by the same organization, must be in different geographical areas.

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

i got my wife to make her first-ever political donation to gravel after showing her a short video from the 2008 debates. i specified that he needs unique donations to get on the stage, but never really broke down what that meant, so she selected the $20.20 option. she didnt even get a sweet shirt, hat, or rolling papers out of it :(
