Voting Record
Missed Votes
From May 1919 to Mar 1929, Howard missed 171 of 590 roll call votes, which is 29.0%. This is much worse than the median of 16.7% among the lifetime records of representatives 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.
