Eight of the Republican 2024 hopefuls not named Donald Trump will gather in Milwaukee tonight for the first debate of the presidential cycle.

Trump, far and away the frontrunner, has opted not to participate despite the lobbying from executives and anchors at Fox News, which is hosting the event. He instead sat for an interview with ousted Fox News host Tucker Carlson, which will be released during the debate.

That leaves on the stage: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former VP Mike Pence, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, tech businessman Vivek Ramaswamy, former Ambassador and South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum.

We’ll be covering the debate live tonight and will keep you up to speed with everything you need to know in the meantime. Follow along below:
