#2I'd love to see this go on much past 100 days, but this is awesome. Would love to see accountability like this for every politician.

Yeah, I agree. I don't know who made it, but I like how it breaks down the key issues in a digestible way.

Certainly would be great and such transparency is more useful than not.
Though with 8/24 done already, maybe possible that he gets them all done before 100 days - that would be impressive.

Hi! Maker here. So glad you liked it! We aspire to create a resource that is useful to all people, regardless of political viewpoint, who are interested in following this administration.
Here are the FAQs on how it works and how it's updated. https://trackbiden.com/faq/

A lot of them are "start pushing for" or signing executive orders, things that have little to no variance in their estimate or likelihood.
That isn't to say the dashboard isn't useful! But looking at the raw number doesn't tell you much, esp at this point.

Very true, some will be low hanging fruit type problems, others more protracted and as always, time will tell.
What would be handy is an indication of status in a more granular way, like indicating hold-ups and enough information to discern what is holding some actions up. That is the detail that is the devil in politics.

#8This seems really neat! The diagram in [0] has a typo in the header though, and I'd argue it doesn't make sense to use a chloropleth on states without normalizing for population.
If this is something one can easily spin up, though, it'd be nice to be able to have this for congresspeople too; though I suspect a lot of their promises are "work towards proposing in committee [...]"...

Someone started Trudeaumetre[1] for Canada after the 2015 election. It's a similar format, though from a quick look, I'm not sure it's been updated since late 2019 (their Patreon link seems broken too).
Regardless, I'd like to see more of this sort of promise tracking. If someone says "You shouldn't vote for politician X because they said they would do this and didn't", not only is it easier to verify that claim, but you can also see their rate of things they said they would do vs things they didn't/couldn't.

#10End federal and potentially end state executions is missing from the criminal justice bit. That needs adding.
