STATES' QUALIFICATIONS FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL. The most common qualifications address minimum age, citizenship, residency, electoral status, and bar admission.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is back in hot water. He’s escaped before.
Paxton has spent much of his time in public life haunted by accusations of illegal or unethical behavior, causing quiet discomfort among some Republican colleagues. He’s always held on. Will this time be different? (Texas Tribune)
Yep, once again the men and women we assume (make an ASS out of U and ME), who are responsible for upholding laws, and who have the authority as the HEAD HONCHO of each state, to enforce laws, BREAK THE LAW, willingly and give the middle finger to the rule of law.
These criminals are supposed to be the folks who arrest and prosecute CRIMINALS. And just like the cadre of Lawyers for Trump, who either looked the other way, acted dumbfounded, or ignored laws, still have the license to practice law. This reminds me of something from Tik Tok, where you need no facts, education, or experience but yet you act like you KNOW IT ALL. So sickening!
