Sponsorship Analysis

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

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

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