Voting Record
Missed Votes
From Dec 1813 to Apr 1816, Bibb missed 83 of 336 roll call votes, which is 24.7%. This is much worse than the median of 11.9% among the lifetime records of senators serving in Apr 1816. 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.
