Where they stand

Strongly left, AI estimate from their own website (70% confidence).

How we got this: our AI model read their campaign site and their campaign site and placed Lisa A. Cutter by the policy positions stated there. It is never told the candidate's party. The positions it found: economy, taxes & spending (moderately left); abortion (strongly left); health care (strongly left); lgbtq+ & gender policy (strongly left) (details under Issue by issue).

70% confidence means the positions it found mostly pointed one way. We show an AI estimate only at 70% or higher, and it's less certain than a voting record or donor score. How AI estimates work · the exact instructions it follows

AbortionStrongly left · 99%
Health careStrongly left · 85%

AI-estimated from their own website, never told the candidate's party. The percentage is the AI's confidence in which way that stance leans. An issue appears only when the AI finds a clearly stated position (it must be at least 60% sure they took one) and is at least 70% confident in its direction; otherwise we leave the issue out.
