This week's debate/event schedule

Most of this info is from the website of the Citizens Clean Elections Commission.  They seem to be the only group that Republican candidates will pay attention to when they come calling regarding debates this year.  Maybe it has something to do with legal requirements for campaign funding.

Not that Carl Seel (R - LD6 ) cares about minor details like that, but more on that in the near future...

Other events:

- Penny Kotterman, Democratic nominee for Superintendent of Public Instruction, has a calendar entry on her website for "ASA Event" on Monday morning, 8:30 a.m., at Metro Tech High School, an entry that includes a "forum" component.  Not sure what it is about, since "ASA" could refer to both "Arizona School Administrators" and "Arizona Students Association" and both would work for this race and for holding events in a school.  Since the event *is* at a school, it probably isn't open to the public anyway.

- Manny Cruz is running for State Mine Inspector.  Right now, no events are listed on the calendar section of his website for this week.  However, if his campaign updates the website or sends a list of events to me, I'll update this post.

- On Wednesday, September 15, a group called "Scottsdale Residents and Business Owners for Open, Clean and Efficient Government" will be holding a forum for candidates for Scottsdale City Council at 11 a.m. in the City Hall Kiva.  The group is run for Mayor Jim Lane by R. Lamar Whitmer and is expected to craft an event that favors Lane's selected candidates.  The group was formed on August 5, 2010 as a $500 Exemption Committee by Whitmer.

- On Thursday, September 16, the Community Council of Scottsdale will hold a forum for Scottsdale City Council candidates in the Granite Reef Senior Center from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Updates as they become available (will add without noting the edits)...
