Billionaire Tom Steyer has qualified for the October Democratic primary debates, the eleventh candidate to do so.

Steyer crossed the threshold Sunday, after receiving 2 percent in a CBS News/YouGov poll conducted in Nevada and released Sunday. To qualify for the debate, candidates need to get at least 2 percent in four polls approved by the Democratic National Committee and donations from 130,000 unique donors. Steyer had already gotten 2 percent in three previous polls, and has already hit the donor mark.

Despite the new poll, Steyer won’t be in the September debate, which will take place this Thursday in Houston. However, Steyer will make his debut on either Oct. 15 or 16, when the next round of debates will be held. Steyer's qualification would expand the debates to two nights; the DNC has previously said it will not have more than 10 candidates on stage on one night.

Ten candidates will debate this Thursday: Joe Biden, Cory Booker, Pete Buttigieg, Julián Castro, Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, Beto O’Rourke, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Andrew Yang. All 10 automatically qualify for the October debate as well — unless they drop out.

The Nevada poll was released as part of a series of surveys from CBS News in early battleground states. The television network also released polls in Iowa, South Carolina and New Hampshire. However, no candidate who has yet to qualify for the October debate received at least 2 percent in any of the early state polls.

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard is the next most likely candidate to qualify for the fall debates, needing no more than 2 additional qualifying polls.

It was not immediately clear if Gabbard has two or three qualifying polls. ABC News and The Washington Post jointly released a national poll early Sunday morning, but the two news outlets don't appear to agree on what their topline numbers are for the new poll, which the DNC uses to determine qualification. ABC News uses a sample of all adults in their story on the poll, while The Washington Post uses a more-restrictive sample of registered voters in their story.

If a sample of adults is used, Gabbard sits at 1 percent — below the required threshold. However, if the registered voters sample is used, Gabbard is at 2 percent, which would be her third qualified poll.

The DNC did not respond to a request for clarification from POLITICO on what sample counts toward debate qualification. In previous ABC/Washington Post polls, both outlets highlighted a sample of adults in their respective stories, and POLITICO treated the adults sample as the topline number that counted toward qualification.

Qualification for the September debate closed Aug. 28, leaving Steyer on the outside looking in. This led to Steyer, Gabbard and other candidates who did not qualify to complain that the rules for debate qualification were unfair.

But thanks to a quirk in the debate rules, the October debate stage will likely end up larger than the September debate. Those who initially missed out on September — like Steyer — had more time to qualify for October. Qualification for the October debate closes on Oct. 1.

Author Marianne Williamson has previously crossed the donor threshold and has received 2 percent in one DNC-approved poll for the fall debate, the only other candidate in the race to do so. However, she did not hit 2 percent in any of the four CBS polls released Sunday, nor in the ABC News/Washington Post national poll.
