Linda Clifford and Annette Ziegler won't have to wait long to make their first joint appearance as the final two candidates for the state Supreme Court.

Both were scheduled to appear before the Madison Rotary tomorrow for the first in a series of forums and debates. They'll then be in Wausau before the Chamber of Commerce there.

A number of groups had already set up a series of debates and forums in advance of the primary.

The big debates will be the We The People Forum, scheduled for March 30, and a debate sponsored by the Wisconsin Bar, WisPolitics, the Wisconsin State Journal, the Wisconsin Law Journal and the Wisconsin Radio Network. It’s scheduled for March 9 in Madison.

There is also a possible debate March 19 that would be sponsored by the Marquette University Law School and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
