The lineup for the second set of Democratic presidential candidate debates in Detroit was announced Thursday, and each night will definitely have a different feel from the first set of debates in Miami last month.
CNN will host and air the debates, and earlier in the month announced the moderators and format before holding a live draw to determine the candidate lineup for each night.
Here’s a look at how the 20-candidate lineup (10 on stage each night) for the debates in Detroit on July 30 and 31 compares to the lineup in Miami.

Biden-Harris on same stage again
A moment that stuck out with a lot of people in Miami was during the second night of debates, when Harris launched an impassioned attack on Biden on the issue of race. Harris felt it was “hurtful” that Biden had a working relationship with two segregationist lawmakers in the past. Biden later said the attack was a “mischaracterization of my position across the board.”
The two will be on the same stage again for the second night of debates.
Biden-Sanders on different nights this time
Going into the Miami debates, much was made about how Biden and Sanders, the two frontrunners in a majority of polls, were sharing the stage on the second night and how it could turn into a one-on-battle between the two. That won’t be the case in Detroit. Sanders will appear on the first night, while Biden will take the stage on the second. Warren, who is running third in many polls, will appear on the first night also.
Bullock in, Swalwell out
The last debate in Miami featured Rep. Eric Swalwell of California, but he has since dropped out of the race.
In his place will be Bullock, who’ll appear on the first night. Not making the cut to be on stage were former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel, Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton, Miramar, Florida Mayor Wayne Messam and philanthropist Tom Steyer, who announced his candidacy earlier this month.
The list of candidates was pared down to 20 for the debates based on criteria such as the amount of donors and position in the polls.
