University of California, Los Angeles law professor Richard L. Hasen - one of the country’s leading experts on election law - said Trump still has a path to serving as president should he win reelection in 2024.
“The Constitution has very few requirements to serve as President, such as being at least 35 years of age. It does not bar anyone indicted, or convicted, or even serving jail time, from running as president and winning the presidency,” he said in an email to CNN.
But this refusal-to-certify has nothing to do with those qualifications. It’s a totally different thing.
