Tom Steyer has qualified for next week's Democratic debate

former Vice President Joe Biden leads Sen. Bernie Sanders , 23 percent to 17 percent. Steyer is tied for third place with Sen. Elizabeth Warren , with both at 12 percent.Former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg is a distant fifth at 6 percent, followed by Andrew Yang’s 4 percent.Biden is well ahead with 36 percent of the vote. But Steyer is in second place with 15 percent, jockeying with Sanders and Warren .

His most recent TV spot, airing exclusively in South Carolina and Nevada markets, features mostly black and Hispanic voters lauding his ability to beat Trump. One ad in Nevada is entirely in Spanish. Steyer hits the early-state polling route through the Fox News polls released on Thursday, and has previously announced that he has hit the donor threshold.

Crucially, the pair of Fox News polls does not bring any of the other bubble candidates any closer to making it on stage, with the Friday night deadline rapidly approaching. The last candidate with an outside shot, Tulsi Gabbard — who has not publicly said she has hit the donor mark, but was within striking distance and also does not have any qualifying polls — registered 2 percent support in Nevada and 1 percent in South Carolina.does not count as a qualifying poll. Biden is at 23 percent to Sanders’ 21 percent. Warren is at 13 percent, Buttigieg is at 9 percent and former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg is at 7 percent.

Pay to play at work.

Puke. Won’t be watching.

The democratic party is on the edge of an implosion. These are the wolves that gather.

Money buys EVERYTHING...EVERYTHING.

Help the homeless save your breath

Steyer should just support Yang

When you have more money than sin....

Term limits are a gimic and a very ill informed platform issue. So he’s a no.

Bloomber, steyer and yang need to drop out we dont need rich corporate heads running for president. We dont need another trump

Tom $teyer

Paying for his own non stop ads? And what is said in those ads ...are not the truth. Wants to get President Trump on the economy. He is a billionaire. Has he not seen the stock market and the unemployment rate? Our economy is booming ... More jobs coming with the USMCA deal.

I've never even HEARD of this guy. Is he good?

I'm not even Dem. But he made his own money, it wasn't 'given to him', to my understanding. I like that he is the ONLY Dem. who has promoted climate change, and limitation on term limits. Mpov, no one in politics should serve more than 8 years, including Supreme Court.

Oh? Boy!?!?

A Billion Dollars qualifies now days

Goes to show you what money can buy. For those not informed and following regularly, It can buy their vote. How cheap and easy Americans are these days

Gross.

Btwn him and Bloomberg I mind him less. There's something about Bloomberg that rubs me the wrong way, ick, like take your money and shove it. SO MANY COMMERCIALS!

Mike Bloomberg should be on that debate stage. . MikeBloomberg

$$$$$

Who?

lol this rules

Qualifying for a Dem debate does not make anyone qualified for an American office of importance. As it now stands, I would have a hard time considering Steyer for Dog Catcher of my home town.

Who?

There is NO WAY this is legit. The 'powers that be' at the DNC have put a finger on the scale on this joke. They are really and truly scared of Bernie.

The US Presidency is up for sale. Which billionaire will buy his way into the White House?

Who is this? And how is this guy who I've heard his name like MAYBE 5 times, qualifying...but not Yang.

Bloomberg, Styer, the billionaire, the oligarchy ruling. Just say no.

And it only cost him $100M+.

Did he use American Express or Mastercard to 'qualify'?

When people listen HollyQuran for the first time ThisIsIslam

Who is this guy though?

Dude can hit the cash mark for that just by emptying his pockets before laundry
