Hi Alan!
Not so sure a convicted felon can run for the Senate? Not specifically forbidden by the constitution but in practice unlikely. Not impossible but . . .
It is a partisan office and he/she has to have a party support him/her which most likely would not happen. If by magic he/she were elected the Senate rules or ethics committee might balk at seating him/her.
Regards,
Pete
