Each entry is that person's own stated view, with its sources.
The badge says what kind of source backs it — official record, own statement, news report or
encyclopedia — which describes the evidence, not how much we believe it. Nothing is totalled or

Immigration
Aaron SanfordOne Nation own statement
His candidate page argues against multicultural nation-building: 'Both major parties have embarked on a mass migration and multicultural nation-building strategy, based on the foolish and arrogant notion that peoples and cultures are interchangeable,' and disputes that 'you can build a strong, unified society based on a civic identity alone. We have been sold their lies for decades.' As a state candidate he would not vote on federal migration law; recorded as a self-stated position.
