When and where is the fifth Democratic debate?
Hosted by MSNBC and The Washington Post, the debate will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 20, at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, Georgia.
Which candidates are in debate?
Ten candidates have qualified for the fifth debate:
- Former Vice President Joe Biden
- Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey
- Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana
- Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii
- Sen. Kamala Harris of California
- Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota
- Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont
- Billionaire Tom Steyer

There will be two fewer candidates on stage in this debate than in the last. Former Housing Secretary Julián Castro failed to qualify this time, and former Texas Congressman Beto O’Rourke dropped out of the race. Former Massachusetts governor Deval Patrick just announced he’s running for president but too late to qualify for this debate.
To qualify for the fifth debate, candidates had to hit 3% in four approved polls or 5% in two early-state polls plus bring in money from at least 165,000 unique donors, including 600 individual donors from 20 states.
