Bradley "call me Chelsea" Manning is running for Senate from Maryland

Chelsea Manning, the transgender former Army private who was convicted of passing sensitive government documents to Wikileaks, has filed to run for the U.S. Senate in Maryland, according to federal election filings.
Manning, who did not immediately respond to a request for comment, would be challenging Democrat Ben Cardin, who has served two terms in the Senate and is up for re-election in November. Cardin is Maryland’s senior senator and is considered an overwhelming favorite to win a third term.
Manning, 30, who is formerly known as Bradley Manning, was convicted in 2013 of the largest leak of classified documents in U.S. history and was sentenced to 35 years in prison. Last year, then President Obama commuted Manning’s sentence to time served and she was released from a military prison in Kansas.
The news of Manning’s filing caught Maryland’s political class by surprise on Saturday afternoon.

doesn't a felony conviction make it where it can't run for political office?

Convicted treason, paid transgender operation by taxpayers and pardoned for no fricking reason by Obama. Now running for office in America. Thanks Obama for rubbing feces on the American flag.

A vote for Manning is a vote for change.

I am sure that the NSA - by far the biggest employer in the state of Maryland - is thrilled about this. Honestly, though the vast majority of those employees are libs, I can't see them voting for Manning.

Call me when Johnny Weir decides to run because I'll vote for the one who didn't break the law.
