Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.

On December 7, 2018, Dulin pleaded no contest to a DUI charge from the state of Ohio. He was initially stopped and charged with a DUI in July 2018 while driving west of Cleveland. When stopped, Dulin refused a DUI test. The charge was first reported in October 2018 by the Charlotte Observer, and Dulin responded to the initial report by calling it "an obvious last-minute smear campaign by the Democrats and their liberal allies at the Charlotte Observer. I pled not guilty for a reason and look forward to my day in court."[13]
