This achievement comes just weeks after Pence qualified for the first debate.<\/p>\n<p>In an email to donors,\u2063 campaign \u200dmanager\u2064 Steve \u2062DeMaura\u200c shared the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/breaking-georgia-update-judge-issues-restraining-order-for-10-days-preventing-defendants-from-destroying-or-erasing-dominion-voting-machines\/\" title=\"BREAKING GEORGIA UPDATE: Judge Issues Restraining Order for 10 Days Preventing Defendants from Destroying or Erasing Dominion Voting Machines\">great news<\/a>, stating, &#8220;We have qualified for the 2nd Republican Presidential debate\u2063 in September.&#8221; He also highlighted\u200d that Pence reached both donor thresholds \u200din just 11 weeks\u2063 since announcing his \u200bcandidacy, surpassing the time it took other candidates\u200c to qualify for\u2064 the first debate.<\/p>\n<p>The Pence campaign has yet to submit the new donors for verification \u2063by the RNC. The second \u200bRNC primary debate\u200d is scheduled for September \u200d27th at \u2064the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in California and will be broadcast by Fox Business. It follows the first debate, which is set for\u200d August 23rd.<\/p>\n<p>Pence initially faced challenges in meeting the 40,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/desantis-commits-to-first-presidential-debate\/\" title=\"DeSantis pledges to attend initial presidential debate.\">000 unique donor threshold<\/a>\u200b for \u2062the \u200dfirst\u2063 debate. However,\u200c he had no issues satisfying the polling requirement, consistently maintaining around 7% support nationally since announcing\u2064 his campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign previously explained that Pence&#8217;s slower donor accrual\u2062 was due to\u2063 their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/pence-campaign-says-it-reached-donor-threshold-for-second-gop-primary-debate\/\" title=\"Pence campaign meets donor threshold for second GOP primary debate.\">primary fundraising method<\/a>, direct mail. They \u200curged patience, confident that contributions\u2062 would come\u200d in, and it seems their confidence was well-placed.\u2062 Pence&#8217;s quick qualification for the 50,000 \u2063donor requirement\u2064 after reaching the first milestone\u200d indicates that direct mail donations have\u2062 started pouring in.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, \u200bthere is uncertainty\u200d surrounding the participation of former President Donald Trump, \u200bthe GOP front-runner, in the upcoming debate. While his\u2063 campaign has\u2062 indicated that he is unlikely to attend, Trump\u200d has yet to make a\u200b final decision. He\u2062 has publicly \u200dquestioned the need for a debate, citing his lead in the polls\u200b and his previous presidency \u2062from\u200d 2016\u200c to 2020. Trump has also \u200dcriticized Fox News, the debate&#8217;s broadcaster, for their coverage of him.<\/p>\n<p>Reports suggest \u2064that Trump may opt for counterprogramming instead of attending the debate, but his campaign has\u2062 not\u2063 confirmed this.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\">Click here<\/a> to read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former VP Mike Pence&#8217;s campaign has secured the required 50,000 unique donors for the upcoming second Republican National Committee primary debate.
