Six Democratic Candidates Will Debate in Iowa Next Week, Ahead of Caucus
------------------------------------------------------------------------

In election news, six presidential candidates - Elizabeth Warren, Bernie
Sanders, Pete Buttigieg, Amy Klobuchar, Joe Biden and Tom Steyer - will
take to the stage for another Democratic debate in Des Moines, Iowa,
next week. All the candidates on stage will be white, after New Jersey
Senator Cory Booker and entrepreneur Andrew Yang did not qualify for the
debate. Billionaire Tom Steyer qualified after pouring more than $115
million of his own money into his campaign. Billionaire former New York
City Mayor Michael Bloomberg did not qualify for the debate, despite
spending nearly $170 million of his own money on ads.
