The U.S. constitution does not prevent convicted felons from holding the office of the President or a seat in the Senate or House of Representatives. States may prevent convicted felons candidates from holding statewide and local offices.

I would say yes but I am afraid there would be instances in which the trial was political, like what we saw with Donald Trump’s trial
@9RVXQ2L12mos12MO
Yes, but as long as they have finished serving their sentence, as long as the crime was not committed while in office and as long as it was not a felony, violent, financial, or sexual crime.

They have their choice of whether they should run for office or not. In my opinion a politician who was formally convicted of a crime in the past shouldn't run because it is pointless. Why would the general public want somebody who had a criminal past running their country in the first place.

It depends what their actions were and what they will be doing to fix them
