Ken Lovett is reporting for the Daily News a state lawmaker is pushing legislation that would bar politicians convicted of public integrity-related felonies from seeking office for 10 years. The bill would prohibit those convicted of crimes including criminal mischief, larceny, official misconduct, and bribery involving a public trust from running for office or holding the leadership post of a political party for a decade. The legislation would also bar convicted felons from joining a political committee for five years after serving their sentence. The bill, by Nassau County Democrat state Sen.
