Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Vermont

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.

2018

In 2018, the Vermont General Assembly was in session from January 3 through May 13. There was also a special session from May 23 through June 29.

Legislators are scored based on their votes on small business issues.
Legislators are scored based on their voting records on environmental issues.
Legislators are scored by VPIRG on bills related to public interest issues.
Legislators are scored on their votes on conservative issues.
