Five Republican candidates held the third GOP presidential debate on Wednesday in Miami, meeting to discuss U.S. foreign policy and the war in Israel.
Taking the stage Wednesday were Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, former South Carolina Gov. and United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley, U.S. Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson were not present at the debate, since the Republican National Committee tightened polling requirements to qualify.Former President Trump held a rally of his own near the debate venue in the Miami suburb of Hialeah, where he attempted to reach the state's Cuban community. Speakers addressed the crowd both in English and Spanish.
Trump is still widely considered the front-runner for the Republican nomination for President. In a Quinnipiac University poll released Nov. 1, Trump held a commanding overall lead among the expected GOP candidates, with 64% of Republican or Republican-leaning respondents saying they would vote for him.
