We have some breaking news! The Republican National Committee has set stringent criteria for the first presidential primary debate. Candidates must achieve specific polling and fundraising thresholds to secure a spot on the August 23 stage. Polling requirements demand unbiased sources and exacting methodology. Fundraising criteria require a minimum of 40,000 unique donors from at least 20 states or territories. Additionally, candidates must pledge support to the party’s eventual nominee and promise not to participate in non-RNC-sanctioned debates. The road to the White House heats up as the GOP contenders grapple with these demands.
