Voting Record
Missed Votes
From Dec 1927 to Jan 1951, Tydings missed 782 of 3,127 roll call votes, which is 25.0%. This is much worse than the median of 8.6% among the lifetime records of senators serving in Jan 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, major life events, and running for higher office.
