From Mar 1873 to Mar 1877, Bogy missed 153 of 869 roll call votes, which is 17.6%. This is better than the median of 30.7% among the lifetime records of senators serving in Mar 1877. 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.
