Trust and transparency

Methodology

Scores and recommendations are deterministic, versioned, reproducible, source-linked, independently validated, adversarially reviewed, and publication-gated. Missing evidence is never converted into opposition or a zero.

45% weight

Worker-policy alignment

Healthcare, worker power, wages, household costs, public services and office-appropriate material policy.

20% weight

Record reliability

Promises compared with votes, sponsorships and governing actions. Candidates without a record receive not applicable, not zero.

15% weight

Funding independence

Material corporate, trade, leadership-PAC and concentrated-interest dependence. Small routine party support is disclosed without sensationalism.

15% weight

Democracy and ethics

Voting access, redistricting, stock-trading restrictions, campaign-finance reform and authoritative ethics findings.

5% weight

Transparency

Specific public positions, questionnaire completion, source accessibility and correction responsiveness.

Separate signal

Viability

Fundraising, organization and competitiveness are shown separately and never alter political alignment.
