A computed proxy from disclosed records (donations, meetings, lobbying presence, flagged gaps), not a measure of wrongdoing. Counts are a disclosed floor, drawn only from published records we have ingested.

97 of 108 records here link to a disclosed source document; the rest are from ingested datasets with the per-record source link still pending. Coverage

Likely the same entity

Uncertain matches we have not merged. We surface them so you can judge the link; we never silently fuse two records.
