House B /Republican
Candidates' Common Interest Score
The Common Interest
Score (CIS) reflects the percentage of Common Interest positions
that a candidate supports. “CIS – Past” reflects issues on which
we took positions that have already been voted on by both the House
and the Senate. “CIS – Future” reflects positions which we have
taken which have not yet come before both the House and the Senate
for votes. The CIS – Past for incumbents is based on their actual
votes on those issues. The CIS – Future for incumbents, as well
as the CIS – Past and CIS – Future for challengers, is based on
candidates answers to our questionnaire. The Common Interest takes
positions when there is a consensus of two-thirds or more on a given
proposal among those members randomly assigned to review our policy
brief for that issue.
