Radio host Larry O&#8217;Connor humorously remarked, &#8220;ASA FEVER IS SPREADING!!!&#8221; Another user pointed out the abundance of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/asa-hutchinson-appears-to-have-six-attendees-at-iowa-campaign-event\/\" title=\"Asa Hutchinson's Iowa campaign event draws six attendees.\">empty chairs compared<\/a> to attendees.<\/p>\n<p>Undeterred by the criticism, Hutchinson shared a photo on Wednesday afternoon from a different event, this time in front of a large crowd at the Education Commission of the States. He described the enthusiasm as contagious.<\/p>\n<p>Hutchinson is determined to secure a spot on the debate stage scheduled for August 23, just six weeks away. To qualify, candidates must have 40,000 unique donors, with at least 200 donors from 20 different states, and achieve a 1% rating in three national qualifying polls.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Hutchinson falls short in terms of donor numbers, with only over 5,000 donors reported by the Associated Press. His <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/why-the-also-rans-matter\/\" title=\"Why the also-rans matter\">national polling average<\/a>, according to RealClearPolitics, stands at 0.8%.<\/p>\n<p>The Washington Examiner has reached out to the Hutchinson campaign for comment.<\/p>\n<h3>Click here to read more from the Washington Examiner<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republican candidate Asa Hutchinson addressed a small crowd of six people at a campaign event in Iowa.
