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
Write-in candidates Andrew Giusto (Unity Party) and Cris Ericson (Independent) are not printed on the general-election ballot and were excluded. Federal key votes and FEC finance totals for Rep. Balint are added separately by script. No biographical information beyond ballot listings was found for Phoenix Altair, Suzanne Seymour or Ryan Walton, and Malloy's campaign website could not be loaded, so his biography relies on his Ballotpedia survey and news coverage.
