“It is ironic that the only veteran in the race is going to be denied a voice the day before Veterans Day.”

Graham referred to the fact that in the last poll, Graham’s name was among those not listed in the question. Supporters had to volunteer his name.

The candidates at the main stage will appear in accordance with their standing in the polls--Donald Trump will be at center stage, flanked by Ben Carson and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, former Florida governor Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul round out the prime-time lineup.

Former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal round out the undercard.
