How we calculate the "Score" for each bill we're tracking:
Bill Score =
total votes matching what voters want
total votes cast by the Representative on bills we are tracking
Where we get our data: OpenStates.org, a community project that pulls legislative data from the Florida House and Senate websites.
Official data: We track and report the votes reported by the State of Florida. Displayed votes are the most recent data available from the House and Senate websites through Open States.
Changed votes: Legislators are entitled to change their votes after bills pass or fail. Those changes may or may not be published by the state.
No votes: A gray circle indicates that the legislator did not vote on the latest motion for that bill. They may have been absent or otherwise unable to vote.
"Voters Wanted" results are reported by the total, state-wide votes, until a district has at least 1,000 verified users in the Voatz app

The bill mandates ranked choice voting (RCV) for U.S. congressional elections from 2027, amending the Help America Vote Act. It specifies ballot design to rank at least five candidates and sets tabulation rules for eliminating candidates until a majority winner emerges. Funds are allocated to states for RCV implementation, voting equipment updates, training, and voter education, with civil enforcement provisions.
