CO-05 has 48,172 workers in healthcare, the district's top employment sector, and approximately 5.5% of residents lack health insurance. Crank stated he 'cannot support an extension of the ACA subsidies without serious reform,' opposing a measure that directly benefited district healthcare consumers and providers.

CO-05 has a median household income of $90,465 but a poverty rate of 8.54%, and 5.5% of residents rely on Medicaid. Crank's vote approved a framework that EMILYs List warned could 'undermine health care for nearly 130,000 people in his district.' Constituents protested outside his Colorado Springs office specifically over this vote.

Voted yea on H.R. 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act) on 2025-07-03: Cross-pressure vote: Crank voted YEA on legislation that included $785 billion in Medicaid cuts over a decade, directly affecting his district where Health Care & Social Assistance is the largest employment sector (48,172 workers) and where 8.54% of residents live in poverty. Crank had told constituents in March that 'people won't lose' Medicaid, yet voted for a bill flagged by Reuters as cutting Medicaid by $785 billion by 2035. Meanwhile, the bill's permanent tax cuts aligned with his top donor sectors — Real Estate ($53,441), Oil & Gas ($33,181), and his Koch-network allies. Constituent healthcare interests pulled against donor and party tax priorities.

By September 2025, after Trump announced the relocation, Crank declined to fight, saying 'Colorado has continually tried to poke the eye of Donald Trump. I'm not going to do that.' The Colorado Sun reported he chose 'flight over fight' while Democratic state officials pursued lawsuits. Both sources are independent outlets.

Scoring Methodology

The Capture Risk Score is a composite 0–100 index measuring potential regulatory capture of elected officials. It is computed from seven weighted components:

ComponentWeightSignal
Contradiction Risk30%Stated positions contradicted by the record (recent findings boosted)
Donor Influence20%Distinct documented donors (FEC Schedule A PACs); inferred donors do not count
Connection Density20%Mapped relationships to lobbyists, contractors, interest groups; donor links excluded
Silence Risk15%Topics where donors have interests but the official is silent
Intelligence Volume15%Documented facts from verified sources
Constituency Deviation0%Shown, not weighted — a model estimate, not a record
Voting Misalignment0%Shown, not weighted — needs platform commitments almost nobody has; the roll-call record on /votes is the vote signal

Each component is the member's standing among all scored members of Congress, and the weighted sum is the overall score. Tiers are ranks: Critical is the top 5%, High the next 10%, Elevated the next 20%, Moderate the next 30%, and Low the rest.

Officials without at least 2 documented facts, 1 contradiction analysis, 1 voting record, or 1 constituency baseline are marked Insufficient Evidence and excluded from numeric ranking.

Contradiction findings from the last 180 days receive a recency boost. High-severity contradictions (score ≥ 70) receive additional weight.

Calculation Methodology

Contract values are summed from documented money flow chains where this entity appears as a source or destination node. Amounts are drawn from USASpending.gov, FEC filings, SEC EDGAR, or LD-2 lobbying registrations.

Donor contributions aggregate documented amounts from the donor_interests table, sourced from FEC individual and PAC contribution filings.

Connected officials are elected officials in our database with a mapped relationship (lobbying, board membership, campaign contribution, etc.) to this entity.

Annualised flow represents the total documented dollar amount traced through money flow hops involving this entity. Where hop-level amounts are unavailable, the chain-level documented total is used as a conservative upper bound.

All figures are drawn from public filings. Estimates are conservative — undisclosed transactions, dark money, and vanish-point hops are excluded from totals. This is a minimum documented floor, not a ceiling.
