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

Basic-tier research from Ballotpedia; federal key votes and FEC totals for the incumbent are added separately. Biography gaps: Barragán's official page and Wikipedia disagree with Ballotpedia on whether she was mayor or mayor pro tempore (both noted); Angel has no campaign website or news profile found, so her career details rest on Ballotpedia survey answers and a BallotReady profile whose listed dates overlap.
