In the sentence, "Pour moi, le pire, c'est le fait que le gouvernement ait contourné le processus démocratique en empêchant l'Assemblée Nationale de voter pour ou contre cette loi.", why is the subjunctive used?

I was marked wrong for typing the latter response. Is this because the subject (nous) does not change? Therefore the second part of the sentence must remain in the infinitive?
Where the lesson says "Both mille and un millier de are followed by a plural verb (sont venus)", am I correct in saying that this only occurs when these adjectives are modifying the subject? The rule is listed after a number of examples, some of which have the adjectives as part of the object/ with no verb following). Let me know if I'm missing something. Thanks!

I'd been following his career since the release of C.R.A.Z.Y. in 2005.
The answer was
Je suivais sa carrière depuis la sortie de C.R.A.Z.Y. en 2005.
But could it also be
J'avais été suivi sa carrière depuis la sortie de C.R.A.Z.Y. en 2005
