Constituents vs. funders

Voted the way most of their constituents wanted on 0 of 3 key votes (0%)

On 1 vote, industries that gave them $10K+ before the vote wanted the opposite of what most of their constituents wanted. They sided with the funders 1 time and with their constituents 0. Constituent views come from the Cooperative Election Study, a survey of about 60,000 adults a year. A side counts as what constituents wanted only when it leads by more than the margin of error; closer results are shown as split. Party explains most votes, and none of this shows that money changed a vote.
