Legislative scorecard
Capitol Weekly, California's major weekly periodical covering the state legislature, publishes an annual legislative scorecard to pin down the political or ideological leanings of every member of the legislature based on how they voted on an assortment of bills in the most recent legislative session.

On the scorecard, "100" is a perfect liberal score and "0" is a perfect conservative score. [3],[4]
On the 2009 Capitol Weekly legislative scorecard, McLeod ranked as a 49. [5]
