Only reviewed policy choices are scored. Each independent decision family counts once per measure; choices within one budget or policy package share that family’s weight. statements, promises, absences and contextual amendments do not contribute. Two decisions are the minimum for a position. The sensitivity range shows the score after removing one decision at a time; it is not a statistical confidence interval or a prediction. Positions use the vote-date range across all councils; the Voting council selector limits the agreement and disagreement sections. People may have different sets of reviewed decisions.
