Chris Van Hollen sided with the majority of Democrats on 852 of 877 votes where their party took a clear position, breaking ranks 25 times.
Counts Yea and Nay only. “Present” takes no side, so counting it as breaking ranks would penalize something that isn't. Roll calls where the member's party split evenly are excluded — there is no majority to agree with. This measures voting alongside one's party, which is not the same as ideology, and it is not comparable to DW-NOMINATE. See the methodology.

Roll-call voting record pending
We have not yet ingested Chris Van Hollen’s official roll-call voting record. Rather than publish a party-line estimate as if it were a measurement, this section stays empty until the sync lands. In the meantime, the Legislative Record above shows the bills Chris Van Hollen has sponsored and cosponsored — that data comes directly from Congress.gov and is specific to this member.
