None of these candidates, shown at an Iowa showdown Jan. 28, 2016, will be on ABC’s debate stage Saturday night. They are, from left, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, businesswoman Carly Fiorina, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore. Santorum and Huckabee are out of the race; Fiorina and Gilmore didn’t make ABC’s cutoff for poll support.
