Miami Mayor Francis Suarez has qualified for the first Republican presidential debate, becoming the ninth candidate to meet the criteria for taking the stage.
Suarez confirmed Friday that his campaign had reached the polling thresholds, which required candidates receive 1% support in a series of surveys. Earlier this month his campaign also hit the 40,000 donor requirement, after instituting a program that offered gift cards in exchange for donations.
The RealClearPolitics average of GOP polls puts Suarez at 0.3%, tied with North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, who will also be at the debate, for ninth place, well behind frontrunner Donald Trump. He has had an easier time collecting cash, raising nearly $1 million in the first two weeks of his campaign. Two political action committees backing his candidacy have raised $12 million. His biggest patron has been Ken Griffin, the Citadel Securities founder who moved his firm from Chicago to Miami.
