Chris Christie: "Don't worry," I'll be on top stage in next debate

When the next Republican presidential debate airs in September, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie promises that he'll appear on the first debate stage, where only the top 10 GOP hopefuls will be able to make their case.

"I'll be on the first stage," Christie told "Face the Nation" moderator John Dickerson in an interview to air Sunday. "So don't worry about it."

September's Republican debates, hosted by CNN, will feature two stages. One-half will comprise only the top 10 candidates "according to public polling." The other half will include any candidate with more than 1 percent in the polls.

The Donald here :

Christie will fall in the polls somewhere between 1 and 1.1 % only because I have use of him . He will be down below where he belongs until he falls down into political obscurity.
He said bad things about me and he has something coming as will be seen on TV ! So for the time being he stays on the bottom at the very least 1 % . Too little is actually too much of Christie.

however according to the article in the link provided you will notice it says the top 10 and the kiddie panel will be those with no less than 1% . If it's 8 & 8 than it's 8 & 8 but it says 10.

You may feel free to provide substantial information by way of a link to support your point.

ABC News said it would be 8 and 8 according to a news program I listened to. But googled it I see it will be the top 10.
