Voting Record
Missed Votes
From Dec 1883 to Mar 1891, Campbell missed 787 of 1,547 roll call votes, which is 50.9%. This is much worse than the median of 33.9% among the lifetime records of representatives serving in Mar 1891. 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.
