It's been said a few times that they vote for you is an import of an American idea of how our parliament works. I think it's worth directly addressing the suggestion. Explain why we focus on individuals rather than parties

Turns out there is a comparison tool in the US - but I don't know what's being referred to there exactly Anyhow it's from propoublica https://projects.propublica.org/represent/members/H001075-kamala-harris/compare-votes/S000148-charles-e-schumer/116
