How honest is Hillary? (Honester than anyone else, but what are the stats?) also in GDP

[LAS14]

I read the post at the bottom of this post in DU today. Then I could swear I read another that had Clinton at 50+% true/mostly true and Sanders 49%. Now I've just read Kristof's column in the Sunday times and he says Clinton rates 95% true or mostly true with 46% for the next highest, Sanders, in PolitiFact. Can any one sort this out? It's clear that Hillary rates highest in truthfulness in all these reports (not a surprise to me), but I'd like to get clear about the stats.

Fact checkers confirm Hillary Clinton is more honest than any of her 2016 opponents

PolitiFact has rated 24% of Hillary Clinton’s contentious claims as receiving a perfect “True” score (source link), which may not sound impressive until you consider that just 15% of Bernie Sanders’ contentious claims have rated out as “True” (source link). There are two other passable categories, “Mostly True” and “Half True.” If you add up the numbers from the top three boxes, Clinton comes out at 72% and Sanders comes out at 70%, which are both robust scores. In the bottom two boxes, just 14% of Clinton’s challenged statements have rated out as “False” or “Pants on Fire” while Sanders has fallen into those bottom two boxes 15% of the time.
