Paul Zukerberg, the only candidate who filed in any District of Columbia primary to run for Attorney General, has asked the D.C.

Meanwhile, the current Attorney General of Washington, D.C., who was appointed, suggested that the bill pending in the city council to elect that office only in November, without party nominees, violates the City Charter.

Ever since 1979, the organization founded by Lyndon LaRouche has been running candidates for public office as Democrats. In 2014, so far, the organization is running Kesha Rogers for U.S. Senate in the Texas Democratic primary, and also running Michael Steger for U.S. House in California’s 12th district in San Francisco.

Before 1979, the organization was called the U.S. Labor Party, and its candidates ran under that party label.
