      Clarification: I should've said "effectively removed." I am now neck-deep in the Alabama implications of "suspended for term" v. "removed."

      Moore is not eligible to run again for another term due to his age, so, he is, effectively, removed from the office of Chief Justice.

      Additionally, and politically, how does this play in to talk of Moore running for governor?

          Tricky. Moore has a devoted following & the state GOP (the organization) has a lot of people who align with him. But . . .
