The Democratic primary debate cycle has been going on for quite a while, but the public’s interest in what the remaining presidential candidates have to say is apparently at a fever pitch, because almost 20 million people tuned in to see Wednesday night’s debate in Las Vegas. Buckle up, folks, because there’s still much more of that to come. The candidates are not done trying to distinguish themselves from one another and will line up for another round very soon.

Following their occasionally heated exchanges in Nevada, the 2020 Democratic presidential hopefuls will again take the stage next week, this time in South Carolina. The 10th primary debate, which will mark the third debate in February and fourth in 2020, will take place on Tuesday, Feb. 25 at the Gaillard Center in Charleston, South Carolina.

All six candidates who qualified for the Nevada primary debate have also qualified for the next event in the Palmetto State, which means Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, Pete Buttigieg, and Michael Bloomberg are all cleared to participate in this next effort to win over voters and become the party’s nominee for the 2020 presidential election. This time, the debate will be hosted by CBS News and the Congressional Black Caucus Institute, with Twitter partnering for the event.

What else do I need to know about the debate?

The next Democratic primary debate will take place shortly after the Nevada election (which takes place Saturday, Feb. 22) and before the South Carolina primary (Saturday, Feb. 29). It will be the last opportunity for the candidates to debate one another before a live audience before the South Carolina primary and Super Tuesday (Tuesday, March 3) votes. Given the intensity of the candidates’ discussions at the Nevada debate, there’s little doubt that each of them will be looking to either continue their upward momentum or turn things around when they head down to the Lowcountry.
