Missed Votes

From Dec 1927 to Oct 1968, Hayden missed 997 of 6,712 roll call votes, which is 14.9%. This is on par with the median of 13.6% among the lifetime records of senators serving in Oct 1968. 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.
