Washington — Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will be the only two Republican presidential candidates facing off in tonight's final GOP debate before the Iowa caucuses kick off the 2024 nominating process on Monday.
Former President Donald Trump also qualified, but plans to skip it and instead hold a televised town hall meeting at the same time. Two candidates — former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy — did not meet CNN's thresholds to qualify after appearing in December's debate.
The debate gives Haley and DeSantis another opportunity in front of a national audience to emerge as the top alternative to Trump, who is dominating in the polls, before the primary campaign shifts into full gear.
