Marianne Williamson Hits Key Polling Threshold in Qualifying for DNC Debates

Posted on | May 29, 2019 | Comments Off on Marianne Williamson Hits Key Polling Threshold in Qualifying for DNC Debates

According to an analysis by Politico, Marianne Williamson has now hit 1% in three national polls, one of the qualifying thresholds for the first two rounds of Democratic National Committee presidential debates beginning next month. Williamson’s campaign had earlier this month announced reaching the other qualifying hurdle — 65,000 unique donors — established by the DNC, which has limited the debate field to 20 candidates. According to Politico’s analysis, so far 13 candidates have hit both the polling threshold and the donor threshold. Among the two dozen declared Democrat candidates, the 11 who have not reached both thresholds so far include New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and New York City Mayor Bill DeBlasio. In the most recent national poll, by Morning Consult, only seven candidates are higher than 1% while 11 other candidates had 1% and DeBlasio is at 0%.
