First Read calculates the polling averages from the last five national polls to see who will get to participate in the first GOP presidential debate on August 6:

Trump – 16.8%
Bush – 14.8%
Walker – 9.8%
Rubio – 6.2%
Huckabee – 6.2%
Paul – 6.2%
Carson – 5.8%
Cruz – 5.2%
Christie – 2.8%
Perry – 2.4%

Not making the cut:

Santorum – 1.8%
Kasich – 1.6%
