NextImg:'Fellas, Your Turn': Nikki Haley Crosses Final Threshold to Qualify for Debate After Trump Holds Out

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley has secured her spot in the first Republican primary debate.

To qualify for the debate, candidates are required to meet polling and donation criteria and sign a pledge to support the eventual GOP presidential nominee.

On Thursday, Haley posted an image to X, formerly Twitter, showing that she had signed the “Beat Biden” pledge.

“I further pledge that I will not seek to run as an independent or write-in candidate nor will I seek or accept the nomination for president of any other party.”

Several notable GOP candidates have yet to sign the pledge, including one of the biggest names in the Republican Party.

Former President Donald Trump has said he has no intention of signing.

“I can name three or four people that I wouldn’t support for president,” Trump said of his fellow candidates this week. “So right there, there’s a problem.”

The first Republican primary debate will take place on Aug. 23 in Milwaukee.
