About this data. We score every candidate's website on the Engagemii AI Visibility methodology - six categories, thirty-plus signals, rolled up to a 0-to-10 number. Polling comes from the latest published numbers per race, pulled from each pollster's report. Race ratings are the consensus of Cook Political Report, Sabato's Crystal Ball, Inside Elections, the Washington Post, the Economist, VoteHub, and RealClearPolitics. This page updates as candidates declare and as new polls land. Initial roster shows curated races while the full candidate pull (5,000+ federal candidates from the FEC filings + state legislators from OpenStates + every governor) is being scored.
