Possibly. Is there any evidence of this? Also, do you think DUI's from over a decade ago are election killers? The Dems and O'Rourke didn't seem to think so when Francis ran for office only eight years after his arrest. He also tried to flee the scene according to the officers that arrested him. Note this is not "whatabout" this is a direct comparison about such an incident impacting on a person's electability.
