Where they stand

Moderately right, AI estimate from their own website (76% confidence).

How we got this: our AI model read their campaign site and placed Kari Galassi by the policy positions stated there. It is never told the candidate's party. The positions it found: economy, taxes & spending (moderately right); crime & public safety (strongly right) (details under Issue by issue).

76% 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
