Voting Record
Missed Votes
From Apr 1869 to Mar 1877, Hoge missed 541 of 902 roll call votes, which is 60.0%. This is much worse than the median of 26.2% among the lifetime records of representatives 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.
