How this record is built

Identity and office: OpenStates people database. Rosters are re-checked every day (federal) or every week (state).

Roll-call votes: House votes are read from the House Clerk's XML and published only when congress.gov reports the same result and the same position for every member. Senate votes are read from senate.gov and published only when the vote document and the Senate's vote menu agree on the tally and result. Disagreements are logged, never shown. Nothing in the vote data is guessed or inferred.

Trust score: 100 minus the average falseness of the official's PolitiFact rulings (True 0, Mostly True 0.2, Half True 0.5, Mostly False 0.8, False and Pants on Fire 1). Shown once at least 3 rulings exist. Every ruling links to PolitiFact.

Consistency score: Trust = 100 - 100 * mean(falseness); Consistency = MAX(0, 100 - (Contradictions * 15) / Eligible Topics). Needs at least two topics with multiple dated statements.

Public attention: Wikipedia views over the last 30 days plus recent Daily Borg headline mentions, scaled 0 to 100.

No score on this page is guessed or inferred. Where the data is thin, the page says "Not enough data" rather than guessing.
