How these numbers work
  • Counted from the official House and Senate roll calls. Quorum calls are not counted, nor joint sessions and the vote electing the Senate President.
  • “Roll calls voted on” matches the Missed votes figures below; voting “present” counts as voting.
  • A split vote is one where at least one member voted yes and another voted no (ties not counted). “In the minority” means on the side with fewer votes.
  • “Whole Senate” combines every member’s record for the same session. Percentages are shown only with at least 10 votes to count.
  • Most bills pass or die without a roll call, so these numbers cover only part of a legislator’s work.
  • Party is shown as the Legislature lists it, next to the district. MassVoter never compares, groups or ranks legislators by party.

These numbers describe the record; they are not a grade. A no vote or a minority vote is neither good nor bad. MassVoter never rates legislators.
