Voting Record
Missed Votes
From Jun 1886 to Mar 1887, Wallace missed 98 of 212 roll call votes, which is 46.2%. This is much worse than the median of 28.4% among the lifetime records of representatives serving in Mar 1887. 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.
