Donor influence

Votes that match the money

How often does a politician vote the way their biggest donors want? We line up each vote with the donor industry behind them. A high score is bad — it means most votes went the money's way. A low score is good — they voted against the people who fund them.

Most independent. These politicians voted against the money the most. Lowest score first.

We only rank a politician with 5 or more scored votes. We line up each House roll-call with the donor industries that fund them. A high score means most votes went the money's way (bought). A low score means they voted against the money (independent). Same votes, two ways to read them. See how we count
