Sponsorship Analysis

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

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

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