founder of an extreme right party in Austria and who died in a car crash after a gay party were he drunk, well, he drunk too much and he went straight against a tree

Concern: how to deal with candidates who are dead at time of consideration, since they are unable to respond to allegations and incapable of reform, and it's a bit … icky to list them?

I think you mean Jörg Haider? It was never confirmed that he was gay. Also NBC News states: "Though Haider praised aspects of Hitler's labor policies, criticized immigrants as lazy, criminal and corrupt, and seemed contemptuous of Jews, neither he nor his party ever said anything derogatory about homosexuals, or made traditional family values a key campaign theme." https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna27363925
