Only 7 Democratic Candidates Have Qualified for the Next Debates

(The Mary Sue) Last night wrapped up the second round of Democratic debates and the same sentiment was on everyones mind: there are too many damn people in this race and some of these jabronies have got to go. Well luckily the democratic reaping has already begun as the 20 candidates have been whittled down to a slim seven for Septembers debates. As of now only 7 candidates have qualified for the next round which imposes stricter parameters to gain entry. Candidates must have 130000 unique donors and register at least 2 percent support in four polls qualifications that must be met by August 28th. So far the only eligible candidates are: former VP Joe Biden Sen. Elizabeth Warren Sen. Bernie Sanders Sen. Kamala Harris Sen. Cory Booker Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Beto ORourke. They are trailed by an additional 3 candidates who are closing in on meeting their qualifications: Julin Castro Andrew Yang and Sen. Amy Klobuchar. Castro and Yang have the donors and are each one poll away from qualifying while Klobuchar needs only 10000 more donors to make the cut.
