Kucinich vote-show percentage better than Tubbs-Jones…
January 24th, 2008
… who is Joe Cimperman's Congressional Representative, after all.
So why isn't he running against her?
The Washington Post "Votes Database" says Kucinich currently has a
"missed vote" ratio of 11.5%. Eleven Democrats have higher no-show
percentages. One of them is Cimperman's own Representative, Stephanie
Tubbs-Jones, who has missed 141 votes in this Congress compared to
Dennis's 139 (not "300+", as Cimperman's commercial says).
In addition to Cimperman himself, Tubbs-Jones also represents
virtually all the citizens in his City Council Ward. So it's kind of
curious that her non-votes are a non-issue to Joe, while Dennis' are
such an outrage that Joe feels compelled to cross the District line
and run against him.
Just sayin.
