How these breakdowns are computed
Every figure on this page is a deterministic computation over Larsen Jay’s published roll-call votes on Knox County, TN Board of Commissioners — the same record set behind the vote table below. Nothing is a composite score, a grade, or a ranking. The general pipeline (sources, extraction, gates, review) is described on the methodology page.
- Votes by topic. Each published motion is attributed to every distinct neutral topic its agenda items carry — the primary subject and any secondary tags alike, so an item counts under every topic it’s about (and a consent-calendar motion covering several items counts under each); procedural items are excluded, as in the default vote browser. Aye/No/Abstain are counts of Larsen Jay’s own vote. A percentage is shown only when the topic has at least 10 votes. Body median is the median of the Aye and No tallies across the same motion set — the typical room split on that topic.
- Attendance & dissent over time. Bucketed by the calendar year of each meeting. Attendance = votes where Larsen Jay was recorded present (not absent or recused) ÷ total votes that year; the percentage is shown only when the year has at least 10 votes. Dissents = “No” votes on motions the body adopted anyway. The denominators for every year are in the table above.
- Term timeline & election markers. The two trend strips plot the yearly attendance and dissent figures above on a single time axis spanning Larsen Jay’s full term (Sep 1, 2018–present). The vertical lines mark public election-calendar dates — candidate-filing deadlines, primaries, and general elections — that fall within that span, each labeled with its date and type. Those dates are a matter of public record (source: Knox County Election Commission); the timeline itself makes no claim about them. It marks the dates and draws the line; any pattern near an election is the reader’s to notice, not ours to assert.
- Agreement with other members. Computed over contested votes only — motions where the roll call recorded at least one Aye and at least one No. For each colleague, the record set is the split motions where both cast an Aye or No (their seated overlap); “voted the same” counts the motions they cast the identical value on. A percentage is shown only when that shared set reaches 10 votes. Unanimous votes are excluded on purpose: they would launder everyone into near-total agreement.
- Motions made & seconded. Straight counts of published motions where Larsen Jay is recorded as the mover or the seconder in the minutes, grouped by the motion’s neutral topic(s).
