Once they pay their debt off to society, they deserve the chance to run like any other person.
To hold someone to their crime for life or decades after they have paid off their debt, conflicts with one of the founding principles of the US system of justice!
For a DWI committed decades ago? No... if they admitted to it, paid their debt to society and have been clean ever since, I don't see where it has any bearing on the election now.
I just love how the Republicans are running scared of Beto and trying desperately to smear his name. His arrest records and the facts surrounding them have been well known for years. He's never tried to hide them. This OP is deliberately trying to make the issue sound heinous when in actuality they were minor crimes. Fence jumping? Who hasn't done that as a youngster?

Only difference is that Trump's accusations were claimed to happen before his campaign.
