Apparently, possibly? this is his Husband.
I did see a comment that he would not be standing for reelection, presumably looking to make his money in one term. From what I could gather he was nominated with the expectation he would lose, maybe that was why nobody looked to closely? Or at all. Sadly I can think of many many other Politicians with issues, issues well known before an election, but seemingly made no difference.
And to the big question, why do you not like Tulsi?
