I find it somewhat disturbing that this sort of thing is not considered a career killer for politicians.

Almost nothing is. Local politicians fail upwards to the EU (at least in Germany) or some private job, if they fail at all. Most of the time, you can do what you want, and the voters don’t care.

Those not yet brain washed voters do actually care.

But then there are the „Wahlhelfer“ who openly proud themselves in Twitter to invalidate votes for parties they disagree with.

This is democracy?
