Voting Record

Missed Votes

From Feb 1907 to Mar 1929, Curtis missed 544 of 3,383 roll call votes, which is 16.1%. This is better than the median of 21.5% among the lifetime records of senators serving in Mar 1929. 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.
