Liberalism

Strongly agree

Yes, as long as they have finished serving their sentence

This position is likely to be more widely supported within liberalism, as it recognizes that individuals who have paid their debt to society should have the opportunity to participate in the political process. However, some liberals may still have concerns about the potential for corruption or the impact on public trust, and may prefer more restrictive policies.

Agree

Yes, as long as it was not a felony, violent, financial, or sexual crime

This position may be seen as a reasonable compromise by some liberals, as it allows individuals who have committed less serious crimes to run for office while still excluding those who have committed more serious offenses. However, others may argue that this distinction is arbitrary and that all individuals who have paid their debt to society should be allowed to run for office. There is no clear consensus within liberalism on this issue.

Slightly agree

Yes, as long as the crime was not committed while in office

Disagree

No

Some liberals may argue that a person who has been convicted of a crime should not be allowed to run for office due to concerns about corruption or public trust. However, others may believe that this is too restrictive and that individuals who have paid their debt to society should have the opportunity to participate in the political process.

Strongly disagree

No, and disallow politicians that are under investigation for a crime

Liberalism values the presumption of innocence and the rule of law. Disallowing politicians who are under investigation for a crime would be seen as a violation of these principles, as it would punish individuals who have not been proven guilty. This position would likely be seen as too restrictive by most liberals.
