Nope. The New Mexico county commissioner Couy Griffin is disqualified from office by his participation on January 6th.

So is school board member Miles Adkins in Frederick County.

Good luck with that. Removing and elected school board member for a trespassing charge will probably backfire by motivating republicans to show up and vote. Pick and choose your battles wisely, you are missing the forest for the trees. If Dems want to accomplish their goals they should focus on running candidates that can actually win elections, not trying get a school board member disqualified (for a trespassing charge) that was elected by the local parents and residents. Things are too partisan now and this will be seen (rightly or wrongly depending on the perspective) as a politically biased disqualification. Unless you want to help the Republicans win school board elections across the state and potentially the country, this is a mistake.

Couy Griffin had the same misdemeanor conviction. And he was properly removed from office by CREW.

This isn't a partisan issue. The Fourteenth Amendment applies to everyone, left and right.

I understand that many voters will think this is a political removal, so the likely outcome is that more Republicans will win school board seats in the next election cycle. Unfortunately, most voters don't care about Jan 6th and Dems focusing on this is a losing strategy. Trump is going to win if nothing changes and dems need to stop buying their head in the sand. Focus on bread and butter issue like, inflation and reproductive rights. The average American is more concerned about paying their rent and affording their groceries. Stop pandering to pretentious UMC college educated Dems because it is not working. Hillary lost in 2016 due her inability to connect with swing state voters. 8 years later the Democratic Party has learned nothing and seems almost guaranteed to repeat this mistake.

This is completely irrelevant because you need to win the electoral college. This is not going to change, so ignore it if you want Dems to lose again in future elections.

But if she won more votes from people she didn't "fail to connect." People chose her, but the electoral college elected Trump. I agree that is how elections work here but she didn't fail to connect.

And broke shit and killed people. all in order to violently stop the certification. but sure. whatever you say.

Lie.

99% of guilty people claim they are innocent in court. But luckily we look at the evidence.

Oh, OK. Then who did Miles kill?

Yes, failed to connect with swing state voters that actually matter. California and New York are basically irrelevant. Getting 100 voters in California is worthless if you lose 1 in a swing state.

OK so now you're making qualifications to your statement. Sure, she didn't connect with people in Alabama either, but who cares? They were never going to vote for a Democrat anyway.
