What the site has collected — and what it still needs

The government tree previously relied on a small curated set of role descriptions and action highlights. The shared profile now includes professional background, issue evidence, connections, finance, current events and records. The old highlights remain; they are not presented as the complete official record.

The new archive imports Governor Action Reports, exact named Senate and House sponsorship records, House bill histories and identified congressional sponsorship records. Pages load ten at a time and can filter by year or outcome. DeSantis has 2,705 imported rows, including 2,103 regular-session governor actions from 2019–2026 and 602 congressional sponsor/cosponsor relationships. Special sessions, executive orders, appointments and all individual floor votes are not comprehensively imported. Congressional candidate cosponsorship requests were rate-limited; Jolly and Donalds imports cover sponsored records, not all known cosponsorships.

Bill sponsorship is not a floor vote. A last-action date is not necessarily the filing date. Signing a budget with line-item vetoes is distinguished from vetoing the whole bill. Imported records have no invented household impact rating.

The official election roster establishes identity and qualification; its 377 candidate detail pages do not supply candidate portrait elements. Campaign biographies, official member biographies and candidate-submitted questionnaires are separately researched. The 23 candidates visible in the latest screenshots received a focused identity check. A verified image is used only after matching the person to the filing record; an initial placeholder means the image is still unverified. The table makes remaining gaps explicit.

Profiles now search a live news index, show an eight-item first page, reuse cached results and search older date ranges as users continue. Topic searches use the person’s name plus bounded issue terms. Index coverage, source availability and archives limit discovery; the site cannot claim to retrieve every story ever published. Provider failures are displayed as discovery failures.

The complete verified donor ledger now has one ordered list. The first 100 records are seeded once; subsequent requests continue with the next page and preserve dialog scroll. Exact cents, filing account, election cycle and report cutoff are checked. Selected donors are a subset, not a breakdown of all receipts. Loans and in-kind contributions are separate from cash donations. Current officeholders’ historical 2022 campaign accounts remain clearly dated and do not become 2026 candidate fundraising.

Dated statements, proposals, roll calls and documented relationships are distinguished from historical actions. A legislative action can be shown under its topic with a qualification; it does not establish every aspect of a politician’s position. Unverified Iran, Ukraine, Israel/Gaza or other positions stay unresolved. Party membership alone is not evidence of a personal endorsement, opposition or probability of backing an administration.

Collected local-question counts are not complete official county ballot totals. Broward was researched earlier and more deeply; counties, cities and special districts have different questions and address eligibility. The dashboard now exposes county coverage status and official ballot services. Missing transcriptions never mean that a county has no questions. The saved statewide collection currently contains 228 local questions.

The atlas uses official EDR boundaries and official current rosters. Current congressional districts and the new November 2026 plan are separate layers. County overlaps come from exact census-block assignments. Party colors and percentages describe current seats, including vacancies, never voter registration or predicted results. Display geometry is simplified; an official address lookup determines a voter’s actual district.
