Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.

2016 Republican National Convention
- See also: Republican National Convention, 2016
Rose was a district-level delegate to the 2016 Republican National Convention from Illinois.
Delegate rules
District-level delegates from Illinois were elected directly by voters at the state primary election on March 15, 2016. At-large delegates were selected at the state convention in May 2016. District-level delegates to the national convention could run as "uncommitted" delegates or they could declare their support for a specific candidate. 2016 Illinois GOP bylaws considered a vote for a delegate to be an "expression of sentiment" and "only advisory to the Delegate or Alternate Delegate so elected, unless otherwise directed by the Rules of the Republican Party." At-large delegates were bound to support the winner of the statewide vote in Illinois' primary election for an undetermined number of ballots.

Delegate allocation
Illinois had 69 delegates at the 2016 Republican National Convention. Of this total, 54 were district-level delegates (three for each of the state's 18 congressional districts). According to the Republican National Committee, Illinois' district-level delegates were "elected directly on the primary ballot and bound to the candidate for whom they [declared] themselves."[16][17]
Of the remaining 15 delegates, 12 served at large. Illinois' at-large delegates were allocated on a winner-take-all basis; the candidate who won a plurality of the statewide primary vote received all of the state's at-large delegates. In addition, three national party leaders (identified on the chart below as RNC delegates) served as bound delegates to the Republican National Convention. The RNC delegates were required to pledge their support to the winner of the state's primary.[16][17]
