The LWV will moderate and supervise the forums.  For the Senate race, a diverse panel of community representatives have been invited to participate in the questioning.  The audiences for both forums will also be able to suggest questions for the candidates. 

The entire event is free and open to the general public.  

The Illinois primary election is March 20th.  Because the Illinois election districts were redrawn and boundaries have changed since the last election, voters are advised to check with the DuPage County Election Commission to verify their election districts and polling places.
