Things to know about the LaRouche Party amidst the 15th district congressional race

To the editor:

Thank you for covering the three candidates running for U.S. Congress in the 15th district on the front page of the Oct. 24 issue. Voters should know about their choices.

However, you were negligent in your story about the LaRouche Party candidate in not pointing out the party is based on the ideology of Lyndon LaRouche, an extremist, antisemite and convicted criminal.

Readers can learn about LaRouche from, among other sources, his obituary in the New York Times at nytimes.com/2019/02/13/obituaries/lyndon-larouche-dead.html
