Looks like it's the end for Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, Rep. Eric Swalwell and Bill Deblasio

Whip list: Who's clinched a spot in the 2020 Democratic debates

A crowded field of two dozen Democrats are jostling for one of the 20 spots in the debates set to kick off next month, in what could provide a make-or-break moment for the campaigns.

 

To qualify, a candidate has to either receive donations from at least 65,000 individual donors or register 1 percent support in three polls approved by the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

The DNC has said it will prioritize candidates who meet both thresholds if more than 20 contenders hit at least one of the qualifications and could then use a series of tiebreakers to further narrow down the field.

 

Here is where 2020 contenders stand in terms of getting themselves to the debate stage.
