I thought treason warranted the electric chair.

Not necessarily. Read up on Robert Hanssen.

Hanssen was arrested on February 18, 2001, at Foxstone Park near his home in Vienna, Virginia, and was charged with selling U.S. secrets to the Soviet Union and subsequently the Russian Federation for more than US$1.4 million in cash and diamonds over a 22-year period.

On July 6, 2001, in order to avoid the death penalty, he pleaded guilty to 15 counts of espionage in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. He was sentenced to 15 life terms without the possibility of parole. His activities have been described by the Department of Justice's Commission for the Review of FBI Security Programs as "possibly the worst intelligence disaster in U.S. history."

"I thought treason warranted the electric chair."

Firing squad, actually...

If someone volunteered to provide one round per each firing squad, I have no doubt that there would be a nationwide stampede of volunteers to supply all the rest...
