Trustee Reelection Reveals Flaws
Every time I hear someone denying the existence of the Holocaust, I would like to smear in his face the blood of my family (grandparents, uncles and cousins) who died under torture of the Nazi butcher, Riga Latvia (“Studying the Lessons of Steven J. Frogue,” Nov. 25).
Shame on you people in Orange County, who with your votes put this man back in a pulpit of hatred and bigotry.

* Unfortunately, I have to come to the conclusion that the voting public is not informed enough to select officials to local low-profile positions. Here in Irvine, Mike Ward, who voted to borrow, bet and lose millions of dollars, and who apparently wishes to approve any business development and have the city look like Harbor Boulevard, is returned to the City Council.
In the Saddleback Community College District trustee election, Stephen J. Frogue, a man who believes Lee Harvey Oswald was in the employ of the Anti-Defamation League and who wants to “debate” the validity of the Holocaust, is also reelected with over 60% of the vote and allowed to make crucial decisions regarding educational standards.
The returning of such individuals to public office indicates that a better system of selection is in order.
