The problem is tying this to the category of felony, which is too broad of a category.
Someone who committed something heinous like felony assault, there’s still an easy argument to be made that they should be allowed to both run for office and vote.
But if someone was guilty of some kind of corruption, bribery, taking bribes, spying, insurrection, treason, organized crime, violating their oath of office, or anything else that suggests they are not going to serve with the best interests of their constituents and the world at heart, they should absolutely not be allowed to run for office, and maybe should not be allowed to vote.
