How records become a W4POLITICS comparison

  1. Use official election records as the rosterDo not infer a general-election candidate from a campaign site or news story.
  2. Keep state and federal records separateUse the disclosure system responsible for each office.
  3. Match identities conservativelyPublish numeric summaries only when the record supports the candidate-to-filer match.
  4. Preserve source terminologyUse the official field labels and avoid invented totals.
  5. Show the boundaryList missing and uncertain coverage beside completed work.
