Analysis And Fact Checks From The 4th Democratic Presidential Primary Debate
John Minchillo/APTwelve Democrats seeking the White House sparred Tuesday night in a wide-ranging debate held in Ohio. Otterbein University was host to the largest number of qualifying candidates to share the same stage.
Former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Elizabeth Warren were front and center. Sen. Bernie Sanders, another of the front runners, was back just two weeks after suffering a heart attack and suspending his campaigning.
Tuesday night could be the last 2020 presidential debate for some candidates. Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, former Texas congressman Beto O'Rourke, former Housing Secretary Julián Castro and Hawaii congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard have not yet met fundraising and polling thresholds to participate in the November debate.
California Sen. Kamala Harris, South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, entrepreneur Andrew Yang, New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker were on stage as was billionaire activist Tom Steyer.
