From Jan 1979 to Dec 1980, Leach missed 394 of 1,276 roll call votes, which is 30.9%. This is much worse than the median of 8.6% among the lifetime records of representatives serving in Dec 1980. The chart below reports missed votes over time.
We don’t track why legislators miss votes, but it’s often due to medical absenses, major life events, and running for higher office.
