PolicyLogic is an independent, nonpartisan platform that measures what elected officials and government institutions promised — and what they actually did. The scoring is rigorous, the methodology is published in full, and the conclusions are yours to draw.
Every design decision in the methodology was made with one question in mind: could a journalist, a researcher, or a skeptical critic reproduce this result from the same evidence? If not, the rule was not specific enough.
PolicyLogic is not a fact-checker. It does not evaluate whether statements made in office are true. It evaluates whether commitments made during campaigns or at the start of terms were followed through on.
PolicyLogic is not a rating service for policy outcomes. A promise to cut taxes is scored on whether taxes were cut — not on whether cutting taxes was good policy. The merit of the policy is outside the platform's scope.
The platform has known limitations — coverage asymmetry between large and small jurisdictions, the subjective elements of certain scoring judgments, and the risk of AI training data bias. These are documented in the methodology, not buried.
PolicyLogic is an independent civic technology project. It is not affiliated with any political party, campaign, PAC, government agency, or advocacy organization. It does not accept advertising and does not accept funding from organizations with active electoral interests.
If you believe a scorecard contains an error — a promise misclassified, evidence overlooked, or a score that does not match the documented record — use the Report an Error link on any scorecard. Submissions are treated identically regardless of source. The evidence governs, not who submitted the challenge.
