Weighted composite, 0–100. Identical to the figure on the Congress monitor. Each bar is the component's normalised 0–100 contribution before weighting.

01

Silence on donor-funded topics 6

Topics where donors have documented interests but the official has no public statement on record. Silence is the absence of expected speech — not proof of intent.

All silence flags for Craig A. Goldman →

No platform-contradicting votes among 670 votes on file. 3 aligned, 6 related.

03

Broken promises 0

Documented public commitments paired with the documented action that broke them. Each carries a primary-source citation for the violation.

No documented broken promises on file.

04

Documented contradictions 2

Stated-position-vs-revealed-conduct contradictions analysed against the official's commitments, scored by strength of the contradiction.

  • platform_vs_vote SCORE 90
    Goldman campaigned as a fiscal conservative who would cut federal spending, yet voted for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which the CBO projected would add over $2.4 trillion to the deficit — a profound departure from the spending-constraint rhetoric he deployed against the Biden administration.
  • reversal SCORE 60
    Goldman voted to impeach a fellow Republican, Ken Paxton, citing constitutional duty, yet his campaign subsequently embraced endorsements from the very GOP establishment figures Paxton's allies target — a vote defended on institutionalist grounds that sits uneasily with the Trump-aligned posture he now adopts in Congress.

What this scorecard does and doesn't claim

Every figure above is a count of records the platform already holds, each click-through-able to its source. The scorecard adds no inference, no forecast, and no narrative — it aggregates what is documented.

A populated scorecard is not a finding of corruption. It documents the volume of stated-vs-revealed tension, donor-adjacent silence, and broken commitments on the public record for this official. Silence in particular is the absence of an expected statement; it can have innocent explanations and is never presented as proof. Read each item's source before drawing conclusions.
