LaRouche supporters are usually referred to as 'LaRouche Democrats' or 'LaRouchies'.  In 1986, two LaRouche Democrats won the primary election in Illinois for Secretary of State and Lieutenant Governor, promoting the winner of the primary for Governor, [[Adlai Stevenson III]], to run on the 'Illinois Solidarity Party' ticket instead, refusing to run with LaRouche followers.  LaRouche followers have otherwise been notably unsuccessful at the polls.

LaRouche, unusually for a Democrat, has historically taken a very negative view of homosexuality.  In the late 1980's, he tried to give the California Department of Public Health the power to quarantine suspected diseased homosexuals.
