I'm not sure how responsible the voters are in this case. For reasons that I don't understand, this story was floated prior to the election but failed to gain traction until the extensive NYT story following the election.
The real measure of the outcome of this will be in how all the powers that be respond to it. The fact that the wanna be speaker has said nary a word (a vote is more important than ethical conduct) does not bode well for Congress.
I do believe that with all this sicky has done he has to have lied on election forms that he was required to sign.
