The Democratic Party said on Friday it plans on holding the next Democratic debate on one night -- Tuesday, October 15 -- with as many as 12 candidates on one stage. In general, 10 candidates have been the max on one stage for nationally televised presidential debates. But party officials said on Friday that holding the debate on one night will maximize viewership. "Our goal has always been to expand viewership, and we also believe that one night worked well for this last debate," a party official said. In the September debate, 10 candidates qualified for the debate, which was held on one night. Those who have met the threshold for the next debate are: former Vice President Joe Biden, New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro, Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, California Sen. Kamala Harris, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, businessman Tom Steyer, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and businessman Andrew Yang.Although candidates still have another four days to qualify, it does not appear any other candidates will qualify. Also, whether all 12 candidates stay in the race until October 15 is unknown. Some candidates are already facing difficulties keeping their campaigns funded. One candidate who is already suggesting he is on the brink of dropping out is Booker. Booker's campaign manager, Addisu Demissie, sent a memo, which was published on Medium.com, that said the Booker campaign is in need of .7 million to continue operating.The reason is simple: it's expensive to run a national campaign. The goal for candidates like Booker is not just to win early primary states, but to continue a campaign past February. The Oct. 15 debate will be broadcast on CNN. 1836

The once mighty brands of Sears and Kmart are continuing to slowly disappear as Sears announced on Thursday the closure of 96 additional stores. The 96 locations, which are a mixture of Kmart and Sears branded stores, are set to close by February. The closing locations will have going out of business sales starting on Dec. 2. The footprint of Sears and Kmart will further shrink by one third with this round of closures, leaving fewer than 200 total locations nationally between the two brands. This announcement comes less than a year after more than 200 Sears and Kmart locations closed. While other retailers in recent years, such as Toys 'R' Us and RadioShack have faded away, Sears' demise would mark the end of an industry titan. The company was at one time the nation's largest retailer, selling items as small as earrings, to as big as houses. The announcement does not impact the nearly 400 locations that operate as Sears Hometown or Sears Outlet locations, which feature appliances and electronics.

The Dominican Republic's top tourism official on Friday downplayed a spate of deaths among American tourists as an exaggeration."It's not true that there has been an avalanche of American tourists dying in our country, and it's not true that we have mysterious deaths here," Tourism Minister Francisco Javier Garcia told reporters.Garcia said toxicology reports were still pending in some cases but that autopsy results and causes of death have been released. He said his country has been in constant communication with US Embassy officials.The characterization in some media outlets of an "avalanche of deaths does not correspond to reality," he said.At the news conference, the minister read the names of the Americans who have died in the past year, with the official cause of death -- noting that all died of natural causes.Garcia said Americans are not canceling their vacations to the Dominican Republic. His country was working to clear up what he called misrepresentations and "exaggerated" reports about the deaths."We want the truth, not a special treatment," he said.At least nine American citizens have died at Dominican Republic resorts -- or after falling ill at one -- over the past year, according to information from the US State Department, victims' family members and the resorts involved.The deaths have left some Americans wondering if they should cancel upcoming trips to the Caribbean nation.Officials there have called the deaths isolated events as they work to reassure travelers their country is safe.Of the nine Americans who have died while or after visiting a Dominican Republic resort since June 2018, it's not clear how many deaths owed to natural causes.Samples taken from at least one minibar at the Bahia Principe Hotel were being tested by the FBI as part of the agency's collaboration with Dominican authorities, the country's public health ministry said this week.Officials in the Dominican Republican or the United States have not said the deaths are connected.Three of the Americans died at the Bahia Principe resort in La Romana within days of each other. Two died at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Punta Cana.The investigations into the deaths have included visits from health inspectors, including environmental health and epidemiology specialists, according to Carlos Suero, spokesman for the public health ministry.The State Department has a standing travel advisory for the Dominican Republic, urging travelers to have caution because of crime, but it has not issued a travel alert specific to the traveler deaths.From 2012 to 2018, 128 Americans died in the Dominican Republic from something other than natural causes, according to US State Department statistics. That averages about 18 annually.The Dominican Republic is one of the Caribbean's top tourism destinations, with more than 6 million stopover tourists last year, including 2.2 million Americans, according to the Caribbean Tourism Organization.Tourism represented more than 17 percent of the country's economy last year, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council. 3098

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott says the state will reject the resettlement of new refugees, becoming the first state known to do so under a recent Trump administration order. In a letter released Friday, Abbott wrote that Texas “has been left by Congress to deal with disproportionate migration issues resulting from a broken federal immigration system.” He added that Texas, which typically takes in thousands of refugees each year, has done "more than its share.” Governors in 42 other states have said they will consent to allowing in more refugees, according to the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service. 615
