Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg will appear on the Democratic debate stage for the first time this week after a new poll helped him meet the qualifying requirements.

Candidates this cycle previously had to have a certain percentage in multiple polls as well as a certain number of donors, but the Democratic National Committee axed the donor requirement last month, paving the way for Bloomberg, an ascending candidate, to make the stage.
