[constituency_baseline] District summary: Michigan's 6th Congressional District, redrawn in 2022, is centered on Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County in southeast Michigan, extending into western and southern Wayne County, a small part of southwestern Oakland County, and the city of Milan in Monroe County. With a population of approximately 771,000, the district is defined by the presence of the University of Michigan — the region's dominant employer and research engine. The economy blends higher education, healthcare, advanced manufacturing, and automotive R&D. The district is highly educated (52.6% hold a bachelor's degree or higher), with median household income around $97,000. It leans strongly Democratic (Cook PVI D+12). Ann Arbor's progressive politics coexist with a significant automotive manufacturing and union presence in the Downriver and western Wayne County portions, creating a distinct mix of affluent professionals and blue-collar auto workers.

Last contradiction analysis: Never

reversal 30/100

Platform: "When President Trump first proposed the new U.S.-Mexico-Canada (USMCA) trade deal, it did not earn the standard of my vote. ... simply giving NAFTA a new name won't give us any new results."

Vote: on "Dingell voted Yea on H.R. 5430, the USMCA Implementation Act, which passed the House 385-41. The…"

Dingell publicly criticized the initial USMCA as insufficient ('NAFTA 2.0') and said it did not earn her vote, but voted for the final version after Democratic negotiators secured stronger labor and environmental enforcement provisions. She frames this as her conditions being met.

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:

Component	Weight	Signal
Contradiction Risk	30%	Stated positions contradicted by the record (recent findings boosted)
Donor Influence	20%	Distinct documented donors (FEC Schedule A PACs); inferred donors do not count
Connection Density	20%	Mapped relationships to lobbyists, contractors, interest groups; donor links excluded
Silence Risk	15%	Topics where donors have interests but the official is silent
Intelligence Volume	15%	Documented facts from verified sources
Constituency Deviation	0%	Shown, not weighted — a model estimate, not a record
Voting Misalignment	0%	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.
