Christie on main stage for GOP Debate tomorrow night

Nine Republican presidential candidates will take the stage for the last primary debate in 2015 for the party on Tuesday night, CNN announced Sunday.

The 6 p.m. undercard debate featured Lindsey Graham, Rick Santorum, George Pataki and Mike Huckabee.

The debates will be broadcast on CNN, CNN en Español and CNN International on television.

CNN lead political anchor Wolf Blitzer, who will moderate the debate, said in an interview on CNN’s “Reliable Sources” on Sunday that the focus will be on “national security, the war on terrorism, worldwide affairs”.

Blitzer will be joined by two questioners, CNN’s Dana Bash and Salem Radio host Hugh Hewitt. Ted Cruz, who has recently shot up in the polls, will be on Trump’s left.

Answer time: In the past, candidates have complained about the short time allowed for answering questions, and many have ignored moderators who tried to stick to the rules.

Donald Trump heads in with more support than ever – 41 percent nationally among likely Republican voters according to a new Monmouth University poll, leading the next candidate, Sen.

“In the light of new polling released this morning and in the spirit of being as inclusive as possible, CNN has made a decision to include Sen”.

This is the first debate to use early-state polls as a criterion for being included in the main event. But at CNBC’s debate, Marco Rubio grabbed the most mic time (almost 11 minutes), while that distinction went to Ted Cruz (just under 11 minutes) at the Fox Business Network debate.

To Carson’s right will be Florida Sen.

Florida’s Republican hopefuls enter the CNN debate riding dramatically different trend lines.

Carly Fiorina was excluded from the first prime time debate, but in the subsequent three match-ups, she’s received more than 35 minutes of airtime, placing her ahead of Rand Paul’s total after four debates.
