After eight GOP candidates made the cut for the first debate in August and seven for the second debate at the end of September, the Republican National Committee has whittled tonight’s field at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County to five: former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former UN ambassador Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy and Sen. Tim Scott (R-DC).

All have reached RNC-designated polling and fundraising thresholds and signed a pledge to support whichever candidate becomes the party’s nominee. As with the past two debates, that requirement has kept the GOP frontrunner, former President Donald Trump, from the stage – even though he has said he doesn’t plan to participate in any of the debates.

Instead, Trump, who is facing 91 felony charges across four criminal cases, is planning to again counterprogram the debate with a rally to take place less than 30 minutes northwest of Miami in Hialeah, FL.
