Mann voted for the 2022 Ukraine Lend-Lease Act to expedite weapons to Ukraine, then voted against the largest Ukraine aid package in 2024, calling it a 'blank check' and supporting an amendment to strip all funding. This is a direct reversal on the same policy question — U.S. military assistance to Ukraine — within two years. Sources are from different hostnames (gopforukraine.com vs. mann.house.gov).

Mann embraced birtherism in 2010, then called it a 'mistake' in 2018. This is a reversal on the same underlying factual claim — whether Obama was a legitimate American citizen — though the 2018 retraction came after the issue was long settled.

Expected position: As a congressman co-sponsoring legislation to extend opportunity zone tax breaks, Mann was expected to answer whether he had divested from his personal opportunity zone holdings before endorsing the bill. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Mann's office 'did not respond to detailed questions from Mother Jones and provided no indication that he divested from his holdings before publicly endorsing the legislation.' KCUR also reported 'the congressman did not respond to KCUR's request for comment.' Mann was actively promoting his policy agenda through press releases during this period.

Expected position: As a congressman who has publicly emphasized accountability and transparency, Mann was expected to take a public position on whether to sign the discharge petition to force a House vote on releasing Epstein case files. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Repeated requests for comment from Tracey Mann went unanswered, according to the Emporia News, 'despite earlier claims from Mann's office that communication with the public was a priority.' Among the Kansas delegation, only Rep. Ron Estes issued a statement, while Democrat Sharice Davids signed the petition. Mann was actively issuing press releases on agriculture policy during this window. Primary URL: https://emporianews.com/kansas-gop-lawmakers-stay-silent-as-records-vote/

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.
