Looking for Voting Histories

[surfinpure]

Does anyone know of a website (a general website, not a particular candidate’s website, of course!) that shows the voting history of each candidate on specific issues?

This would be most helpful, since my husband and I are having trouble sifting through the ‘mess’ of them, and we don’t have oodles and oodles of time to examine each one individually.

Many thanks! :tiphat:

Project Vote Smart has a fairly decent website including candidate issue positions and voting records.

Also, OnTheIssues provides candidate and politician issue positions.

The best non-partisan way would be to search the Library of Congress website.

thomas.loc.gov/links/

You can get the most detail about votes and actual bill wording there (to avoid any spin).

Excellent! Most appreciated.
