Challenge accepted. No models: simple over-performance (House - pres) by caucus. This way we don't have to argue over the definition of "moderate". In sum:

Blue Dog > Blue Collar > New Dems > The Squad

Candidates who want to win in tough districts would do well to mimic over-performers.

Whatโ€™s the return on government support for R&D?

To try to get a credible answer, Open Philanthropy and the Sloan Foundation are committing up to $1 million to trying something new: we call it a Pop-Up Journal.

Are these scores intended to be stationary (comparable across time) or more accurate within a time period?
