Sponsorship Analysis

"Leader-Follower Score"
Everett is a follower according to our statistical analysis of bills in this legislative session. Everett tends to cosponsors the bills of other Members of Congress who do not cosponsor Everett’s own bills. For more, see congressional statistics.

To compute the leader-follower score for Everett, we make a table that lists all other Members of Congress. Each row has the number bills sponsored by Everett and cosponsored by the other Member of Congress divided by the number of bills sponsored by the other Member of Congress and cosponsored by Everett.

This is a measure of who is following who. The higher the number, the more times others are cosponsoring Everett's bills without Everett returning the favor. We then take the mean of (the logorithms of) these ratios. Thanks to Joe Barillari for the idea.
