Voting Record
Missed Votes
From Mar 1933 to May 1951, Kee missed 194 of 1,744 roll call votes, which is 11.1%. This is much worse than the median of 3.1% among the lifetime records of representatives serving in May 1951. The chart below reports missed votes over time.
We don’t track why legislators miss votes, but it’s often due to medical absenses and major life events.
