A couple have been convicted on sedition, seditious conspiracy and are seving 15 year plus sentence in prison.
However, the 14th section 3 does not require a conviction of the seditious insurrection...
The amendment does not say convicted of insurrection in a criminal court to be disqualified. It only states ENGAGED, and does not require a criminal conviction...
I do understand why y'all would think a conviction in a criminal court should be necessary, but since the amendment did not state such, the Colorado courts found him engaged in such, in their civil trial that took place before the Colorado Supreme court appeal review.
We are awaiting a very tricky and complicated U.S. SUPREME COURT Decision.
It is actually not tricky at all. It is kind of an open and shut case. Colorado got it completely wrong. It was nothing more than a partisan decision in which left-wing judges attempted to justify a preconceived judgement of a politician with which they don't agree or like.
