BISMARCK, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum’s Presidential campaign says he’s now qualified to appear on the first GOP debate stage.

In a statement, the campaign said a Morning Consult national poll showed Burgum did get to the one-percent threshold to participate. He had earlier met the goal of having at least 40,000 donors, including 200 from 20 different states.
