Point of Order: Action-Aware LLM Persona Modeling for Data-Grounded Civic Deliberation
LLM-based simulations can enable controlled studies of civic deliberation, but current systems lack speaker-attributed data and methods for evaluating long-form institutional behavior. ASR transcripts typically use anonymous labels such as $Speaker\_1$, preventing models from learning stable participant behavior across meetings. We present a reproducible pipeline that converts public Zoom recordings into speaker-attributed transcripts enriched with persona profiles, topics, and pragmatic "action tags" such as $[propose\_motion]$. Using this pipeline, we release three public datasets of government deliberation (Appellate Court hearings, School Board meetings, and Municipal Council sessions) and fine-tune LLM personas on this action-aware data. We evaluate simulations along four dimensions: persona fidelity, persona consistency, institutional fidelity, and behavioral coherence. Action-aware fine-tuning cuts perplexity by 67%, doubles classifier-based persona fidelity, increases vote attempts by up to $3.6\times$, and improves deliberative responsiveness by up to 70%. Human evaluations show that simulated excerpts are often hard to distinguish from real deliberations, indicating a practical foundation for data-grounded civic simulation studies.
