How Scoring Works We want to give an accurate picture of each Senator's voting record on economic issues, which becomes complicated when they miss votes. Senators are allowed to miss one vote without penalty, but each missed vote after the first one is scored as a negative vote and counts against their overall score.

Several Senators started running for president in 2007 and missed many votes. For decared candidates (Biden, Brownback, Clinton, Dodd, McCain, Obama) we only scored the votes they actually cast.

Similarly, Sen. Barasso only served part of 2007 and we only scored the votes he cast.
