neonvincent: For general posts about politics not covered by other icons (Uncle V wants you)



Tim Ryan
jumped even more to his left than Williamson from an economic score of 15 in June and July to an economic score of 10 now. In addition, he became more liberal socially with his social score increasing to 83 from 80 in July. That moved Ryan from twelfth to sixth most liberal candidate since July.

I've already discussed Gillibrand, who is currently the ninth most liberal candidate in the field, so on to <A HREF="https://www.ontheissues.org/Julian_Castro.htm">Julian Castro</A>, who has moved to the left along both the economic and social axes.  He currently has an economic score of 13, five to the left of the 18 he had in June and July.  His social score is now 80, two higher than the 78 he had the past two reports.  Rounding up to the nearest multiples of five, that puts at the same location on the Nolan Grid as Ryan, which is why the two of them share an infographic.  That has pushed him to the left relative to the field, as Castro is now the tenth most liberal candidate still running, whereas he was the fifteenth in July, cementing his rating as a Hard-Core Liberal according to On The Issues.


Excerpted from Democratic candidates continue to drift leftwards according to On The Issues.
