Accuracy is the product, so when we make a factual error we treat fixing it as a priority, not an embarrassment.
When a check contains a factual error, we correct it promptly and mark the change openly. The corrected check carries a dated note explaining what was wrong and what changed. We never silently edit a published verdict, and we never quietly delete one.
If you believe a check is mistaken, email coryh2014+baseline-corrections@gmail.com with the specifics — the claim, the verdict, and the evidence you think we missed. Substantive challenges are reviewed by the editor against the original sources, and the outcome is logged below whether or not the verdict changes.
Any official or campaign can contest a specific check on the evidence. We will review primary sources you provide and update or stand by the verdict, with the reasoning shown publicly.
Every correction we make is listed here with its date, the affected check, and what changed.
