I thought this was interesting--a brand new representative voting by proxy 120 times? I guess HI is one of the more COVID paranoid states and is the worst commute but still..

Questions about Kahele's work with Hawaiian Airlines arose after the Honolulu Civil Beat published an in-depth story looking into his attendance at the Capitol this year and his personal income since he entered office. The report found that Kahele has voted by proxy at least 120 times since the start of the year, meaning another lawmaker has cast his votes for him.

We often discuss Gabbard (whom he replaced) as a cabal asset, but why was she replaced and what is the plan for this guy?
