Fox News will host the first GOP debate for candidates competing for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
Eight Republican presidential candidates will take the stage Wednesday night in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to battle it out for the chance to represent their party in next year’s election.
Most of the candidates who have qualified for the debate will participate, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, former Vice President Mike Pence, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, former Governors Chris Christie (New Jersey) and Asa Hutchinson (Arkansas), and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.
Former President Donald Trump—the front-runner in the GOP field—has announced he will not take part in the debate. However, political analysts have predicted he will be a major topic of discussion for the other candidates.
Fox News is playing host and will present the debate across multiple platforms, giving anyone wishing to watch a variety of options.
