MADISON, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Wednesday night's planned debate for state Supreme Court candidates has been postponed due to illness, according to Judge Chris Taylor's campaign. 

In a statement released Wednesday afternoon, the judge's campaign said physicians recommended she visit a hospital for evaluation after waking up feeling unwell. It goes on to say:

"While she is unable to participate in tonight's debate, we look forward to rescheduling and finding an opportunity for voters to hear from both candidates before Election Day."

The debate for appeals court judges Maria Lazar and Taylor had been set to take place at Marquette Law School Wednesday evening. The winner of the election will replace Justice Rebecca Bradley.

Judge Taylor's campaign says additional information on her condition will be released as it becomes available.
