The first Republican Party presidential primary is just 3.5 months away—and on Wednesday, many of the top candidates will gather once again to woo voters. It is, for some, a chance to have a breakout moment after a less than stellar showing last month. Others, meanwhile, hope to capitalize on growing momentum.
None, however, will be able to face off against frontrunner Donald Trump, who has once again said he does not plan to show up. (His absence at the first debate did not impact Trump’s poll numbers in any significant way.)
