The entire Nevada Democratic House delegation—Reps. Dina Titus (NV-01), Susie Lee (NV-03), and Steven Horsford (NV-04)—voted in lockstep Nay on the Farm Bill, forming a consistent Democratic voting bloc. This uniform opposition meant no single Nevada Democrat could be isolated as uniquely anti-rural, partially neutralizing the NRCC attack line.

Nevada has the fourth fewest farms of any U.S. state (approximately 3,122 farms), the second lowest percentage of cropland relative to total land area, and its agricultural revenues ranked 41st nationally. Alfalfa (80-85% of the state's cropland) dominates—a livestock-feed crop that is structurally less relevant to the Farm Bill's commodity subsidy programs than Midwestern row crops.

Lee issued no standalone press release or public statement on her Farm Bill vote, as confirmed by an exhaustive search of susielee.house.gov and major Nevada news outlets. This public silence contrasts with her visible advocacy on other SNAP-related issues, including visiting food banks during the government shutdown and calling Trump 'cruel' for ending SNAP funding.

Expected position: Candidates for federal office are expected to provide explicit issue positions on key topics to help voters make informed decisions. Vote Smart repeatedly requested responses from Lee. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Lee was actively campaigning — raising $5.96M, participating in debates, issuing press releases, and engaging on social media. Vote Smart's website states that when candidates refuse the test, Vote Smart infers positions from their public record. Multiple of Lee's positions on energy, corporate taxes, drug policy, and other issues are listed as 'Inferred Position — Candidate refused to address this issue.'

Expected position: As a representative of Nevada's hospitality-driven economy who co-sponsored the No Tax on Tips Act, Lee would be expected to address the contradiction between her co-sponsorship, her vote against the bill containing the policy, and her subsequent attempts to claim credit. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Lee co-sponsored the No Tax on Tips Act in July 2024. When the One Big Beautiful Bill included No Tax on Tips provisions, Lee voted against it (July 2025) and dismissed the relief as 'crumbs.' After the bill became law, she tweeted 'To be clear, I support no tax on tips' and attempted to claim credit for the defense provision while ignoring her vote against the overall bill. NRCC and Nevada Globe have extensively documented the pattern. During this period, Lee was actively communicating on other issues including housing, healthcare, and education.

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.
