Following are issue stance summaries by the Faith-2-Action's 2010 "Voter Guides". These represent the organization's inferred summary of numerous candidates' policy preferences, as inferred by this national organization. Faith-2-Action is a conservative group primarily concerned with faith & family issues, but they report on both candidates they support and candidates who oppose their prefered stances. Hence we use their ratings on their numerous policy topics as indicators for both conservative and liberal viewpoints.

We report each group's rating using their own terminology; and we try to balance liberal groups against conservative groups. Here, the texts indicate the Faith-2-Action's wording choices -- but we correlate them with our own (less partisan) VoteMatch wording. Votes which include "VoteMatch Usage" are scored as VoteMatch quiz responses. Those without a VoteMatch usage are included only on each candidate's main issues page.
