Before you vote
JD Vance: 1 PolicyBomb on record
No full scorecard rows yet. Their documented positions are listed below, each with its source and that PolicyBomb's grade. They are not counted in a tally until the full row (author, votes, signer, funders) is sourced.
Grades rest on measured outcomes in each PolicyBomb, not on motives. Every line links to its receipt.
Positions on record
As recorded in each PolicyBomb's "who supports / who opposes" research. Not counted in the tally.
