Issue evidence — side by side

Recorded votes, documented positions and candidates’ own words are shown with sources. “In their own words” quotes a candidate on the topic without inferring a stance. Votes describe specific bills or motions; they do not establish overall support or opposition to a broad issue. A dash means our research has no evidence on that topic, not that the candidate has no position.

Research notes & limits

Alexis Rodriguez has no news coverage or completed Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey that could be located, and her campaign website (alexisfornewyork.com, listed on Ballotpedia) could not be loaded; her biography relies on BallotReady and Branch voter-guide profiles. This is Staten Island's most heavily Republican state senate district, and Lanza has won every general election since 2007 with at least 78% of the vote; no evidence of an active Rodriguez campaign was found, so her entry is marked minimal.
