Only 6 Candidates Will Make Next GOP Debate
Only 6 Candidates Will Make Next GOP Debatehttp://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2015/12/22/only-6-might-make-next-gop-debate.html
"SNIP...........
Fox Business Network released the criteria for its upcoming Republican presidential debate and it turns out only six candidates might qualify for the main event. According to a network statement, based on the five most recent polls recognized by Fox, candidates must either place in the top six nationally, place in the top five in Iowa, or place in the top five in New Hampshire. Politico calculates that this likely means the January 14, 2016, debate will only include Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Ben Carson, Jeb Bush, and Chris Christie. All other candidates will be relegated to the early "undercard" debate, so long as they achieve at least one percent polling in a recent national poll.
