Methodology
- Vote records come from Oyez and cover publicly tracked merits cases; recusals are listed but excluded from agreement rates.
- Two justices "agree" in a case when they land on the same side of the judgment — voting with the majority (including concurrences) or in dissent together. A case counts toward agreement rates only when at least 8 substantive votes are on record.
