Voting Record
Missed Votes
From Dec 1808 to May 1826, Lloyd missed 62 of 744 roll call votes, which is 8.3%. This is on par with the median of 9.9% among the lifetime records of senators serving in May 1826. 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.
