Use the same brief and questions for each candidate. Keep facts, claims and unanswered questions separate. There is deliberately no numeric score or automatic winner.

Your notes stay in this page. This worksheet does not send, save or upload what you type. Closing or reloading the page can erase the notes. Use Print or Export to retain a copy. Avoid entering account numbers, passwords or another person's private information.
