Today’s numbers as of Mar 11, 2026

Rank by voting day

Both lines use the same 1–93 scale (1 is the most conservative). The solid line is rank among all 93 legislators; the dashed line is rank in the Senate (31 members). Shading is the final 2026 bands, from natural breaks in the scores of all 93 (the same bands on every profile and on the published reports).

• Rank among all 93
• Rank in the Senate
• Conservative 1–37
• Moderate 38–79
• Liberal 80–93

Combined rank started at #45 on Feb 9 and ended at #40. Senate rank started at #8 on Feb 9 and ended at #4. Each dot is a voting day of either chamber; the Senate line holds steady on days only the other chamber voted.

Color bands come from natural breaks in the 2026 scores of all 93 legislators, not from equal thirds of the Senate. That put only 1 senator in Conservative, so a Senate rank of 4 of 31 is Moderate.
