Ohio context — not this member’s grade

House members represent a district, not the whole state, so state numbers aren’t their grade. District-level scoring is in development. The state’s governor, Mike DeWine, holds the scored executive record.

Scored on their own record; district outcome scoring is in development. Methodology v2.2

What Davidson voted to fund

These pies aggregate the largest verified spending items — appropriations and mandatory outlays — in the bills Davidson cast a recorded vote on, sliced by category, every dollar quoted from the bill text. Authorizations, guarantee ceilings and pay-fors are excluded, exactly as on the bill pages. This shows what the bills contained, by Davidson’s own votes — not a claim that Davidson wrote the spending or that it did or didn’t work. Click any slice to read the cited line-items.

Federal spending during Davidson’s current term

Total U.S. federal outlays for each fiscal year of Davidson’s current term. This is the whole federal budget — mostly Social Security, Medicare, defense, interest on the debt, and prior commitments — not money Davidson personally directed. A president proposes and Congress appropriates; no single official controls it.

How Davidson is graded

A representative serves a district, not a state, and no honest district-level outcome trend exists yet — redistricting redrew the lines and leaves too few data points. So Davidson is graded on what they control: how effectively they move legislation and how they vote. The state’s numbers are shown as context on the card, never folded into the grade, until district-level scoring ships.

Legislative Effectiveness Scores come from the Center for Effective Lawmaking, which benchmarks each chamber’s average to 1.0. Voting statistics come from GovTrack. The Honesty ledger — promises matched against this member’s votes — publishes only with an evidence trail and two agreeing human reviews.
