Opinions
The majority of the court agree:
That the defendants (as school administrators and teachers) were not disqualified to become candidates, nor from being elected as members of the Legislature.
That similarly, they are not disqualified from being sworn in as members of the Legislature.
The question is not presented in this proceeding, and the court does not decide, what status the defendants must occupy in relation to their respective school districts during the time they serve in the Legislature (or during the term for which they were elected).
