Exactly!
Only if someone is
convicted, then he/she is barred. But if appeal process clears him/her, he/she is free to contest the election.
I really do not see any scope for gross misuse of this ordinance.
Just lodging a complaint or filing a lawsuit is not going to keep anyone away from contesting in elections.
