The Scoreboard
Does the money predict the vote?
One claim, and we let you check it. Every live call is posted before the vote and scored against the official roll call — misses included.
The verdict
Not proven yet — on purpose.
On a money-shaped vote, the side the money backs wins.
Zero live calls resolved so far. This board earns its number one vote at a time — and the first one is the next money-shaped vote on the floor.
The live record
called before the voteNo live calls have resolved yet. Here's exactly what the first one will look like — posted the moment the Senate schedules a vote where one industry has a clear stake:
Called [before the vote] · vote [date]
Pending[The next money-shaped vote]
The bill · the industry with the stake
Our call: the money side wins. Then we wait for the roll call and score it here — win or lose.

The pattern, historically

How we keep ourselves honest
- Calls are locked before the vote. Each carries the date we issued it; none can be added or edited after the result is known.
- Misses count.When the money loses, it stays on the board. A scoreboard that only shows wins isn't one.
- Everything is checkable.Money is career receipts from the industry with the stake (FEC); the vote is the official Senate roll call, linked. Nothing here alleges a crime — the point is that it's all legal.
