It will be followed by a reception including refreshments and a chance to visit with the candidates. During the forum, questions will be posed to the candidates by a panel including Christopher Pooser, past chair of the Idaho State Bar appellate practice session; myself, as president of the Idaho Press Club; and Dr. Jennifer Stevens, a member of the board of directors of the Idaho Environmental Forum.

Brody and McKenzie faced off in a debate televised statewide Friday night on Idaho Public Television; you can see video of the debate online here . The two are in a runoff for an open seat on the Idaho Supreme Court, as Chief Justice Jim Jones retires.
