Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska was convicted of corruption charges. Big deal, lots of elected officials are corrupt. I have followed this case, but not closely. Then I saw this morning’s AP story –
Despite being a convicted felon, he is not required to drop out of the race or resign from the Senate. If he wins re-election, he can continue to hold his seat because there is no rule barring felons from serving in Congress.
He can’t vote in November, only in Congress. Wonderful . . .

At least we know he could not legally vote for himself.
