Missed Votes
From Jan 1993 to Nov 1994, Huffington missed 84 of 1,122 roll call votes, which is 7.5%. This is much worse than the median of 3.4% among the lifetime records of representatives serving in Nov 1994. 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.
