How To Read These Ratings
A score of 78 on economic issues, for example, means that the senator was more liberal than 78 percent of his or her Senate colleagues on key economic votes during 2007. "*" means the member missed more than half of the rated votes. "†" denotes members who are no longer in the Senate. In the event of a tie, scores are ordered alphabetically first by state delegation, then by individual members' names.
