Bénédicte de Perthuis, the judge who sentenced Le Pen for embezzling EU funds and barred her from running in France’s 2027 presidential election, was placed under police protection on Monday night over alleged death threats she received, domestic press reported.
Not this. I only think that not the court but people should decide who will be elected. Even a criminal, if it is a decision of people. People should rule, not the bureaucracy. Otherwise courts will be used one day to protect the power of the ruling instead of protecting the society from the criminals.

Oh how the turn tables :D
You are confusing something with another political system.
Since ancient Greek times, where democracy was invented, severely unlawful behaviour was always being punished by also revoking political rights: offenders would loose both the right to vote and the right to represent others or hold any kind of public office.
And all of this exactly so as to protect the democracy itself.
