Voting Record
Missed Votes
From Aug 1893 to Mar 1905, Gillet missed 494 of 1,137 roll call votes, which is 43.4%. This is much worse than the median of 29.3% among the lifetime records of representatives serving in Mar 1905. 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.
