Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Idaho

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 March 18, 2021, Chaney tested positive for coronavirus.[11]

2009 domestic incident

In April 2014, the Idaho Press-Tribune reported that Chaney had been convicted of disturbing the peace and malicious destruction of property following a domestic dispute in 2009. Court documents stated that Chaney "pushed and shoved" his then-wife, then injured her finger with her cell phone when she tried to call 911. Chaney was also said to have threatened suicide if his wife attempted to leave. Chaney addressed the revelations, telling the Press-Tribune that he had since turned to God and remarried. He later told radio station KBOI that the incident stemmed from drinking while waiting for his wife, who he referred to in the interview as his "girlfriend," to return home; he said an argument ensued over "giving back [his] debit card," and that he had "pretty much acted like a big jerk."[12][13]
