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
Ocasio-Cortez's federal floor votes and FEC finance totals are added separately by script; this file focuses on sponsored legislation, committee and caucus roles, and public statements. Diamant Hysenaj's committee (Diamant Hysenaj for Congress, FEC C00898593) shows $446,003.85 in receipts through the Oct. 14, 2026 report per the FEC API, and he has not completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey, so his record here relies on his own campaign website. Diamant Hysenaj: site pages re-read and a news search run; only an immigration statement qualifies. His housing, health care and safety lines do not address the guide's issue statements.
