Agree

No, and disallow politicians that are under investigation for a crime

Some Republicans may argue for due process and the presumption of innocence.

Agree

Yes, as long as it was not a felony, violent, financial, or sexual crime

The Republican party may be more likely to support allowing politicians with minor, non-violent, non-financial, and non-sexual criminal convictions to run for office, as these crimes may be seen as less relevant to a candidate's ability to serve in public office. However, opinions within the party may still vary on this issue.

Slightly agree

Yes, as long as they have finished serving their sentence

Some Republicans may support allowing politicians who have served their sentences to run for office, arguing that they have paid their debt to society and should be given a second chance. However, others may still view a criminal conviction as a disqualifying factor, regardless of whether the sentence has been served.

Neutral

Yes, as long as the crime was not committed while in office

Opinions within the Republican party may be divided on this issue. Some may argue that a crime committed outside of office should not disqualify a candidate, while others may maintain that any criminal conviction reflects poorly on a candidate's character and should disqualify them from running for office.

Disagree

Yes

The Republican party generally emphasizes law and order and would likely not support allowing politicians with criminal convictions to run for office without any restrictions. However, there may be some variation in opinions within the party.
