Evidence model
Separate what happened from what it means.
A civic information system becomes more trustworthy when it keeps facts, records, interpretation, and voter decision distinct.
Facts. Dates, offices, jurisdictions, bills, votes, statements, filings, sources, and election mechanics.
Records. Voting histories, campaign promises, public statements, committee actions, sponsorships, attendance, disclosures, and official documents.
Interpretation. Tradeoff analysis, consistency analysis, promise-kept analysis, ideology mapping, debate simulation, and candidate comparison. Interpretation should explain its method.
Civic decision. The decision belongs to the voter. Voterism can show what is known, sourced, interpreted, uncertain, and worth inspecting next.
