Missed Votes

From Apr 1917 to Mar 1933, Drane missed 640 of 1,557 roll call votes, which is 41.1%. This is much worse than the median of 16.4% among the lifetime records of representatives serving in Mar 1933. 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.
