One of the Republican presidential candidates wants new rules for stage placement at the upcoming debate

VERBATIM:

Senator Tim Scott’s campaign told the RNC that since Iowa’s caucus is the leadoff to GOP balloting next year, “polling results from Iowa should be the primary consideration for podium placement” at the debate later this month. In the first debate last month, Scott was second from the right edge of the stage. He’s hoping to be placed in a better position that would make him more a part of the conversation. In response, the RNC said the party welcomes input from candidates. GC, Wash.
