Analysis: We researched how many convicted felons had been elected President of the United States: the answer may surprise you.

It’s zero. The answer is zero.

@MissingThePt Nixon probably would have been the first elected President who became a convicted felon but, in possibly the most blatantly corrupt actions in American political history, his former Vice President pardoned him unconditionally after he resigned. Even if that hadn't happened, he still wouldn't have been elected _as_ a felon, though.
