Had Senator Akaka, Governor David Ige, Shan Tsutsui, etc known they were working with the kids that were born and raised to serve their Guru- (the human individual they take orders from known to them as God's representative on this earth aka Jagad Guru Chris Butler), perhaps they may have taken their business elsewhere. 
Had the constituents of Hawaii been told upfront that Tulsi Gabbard is merely a puppet for Chris Butler's political aspirations to have his  disciple be president of the United States one day, would they have voted for her?
In the majority of cases Religion plays no part in a persons electability, but in the Gabbards case it most certainly does. They march to the orders of a rabid cult leader, not to the President elect, the constitution or their constituents.
This cult believes it is above the laws of the land. To lie, cheat, all in the name of their Guru and God -Krsna is indoctrinated in this group of brainwashed individuals devoid of critical thinking skills.
