I have created a hand-tool for use in tracking my differences of opinion with the esteemed members of the California delegation to the United States Senate: a spreadsheet with an entry for each record vote, as recorded by the official Senate website.
Next to the vote recorded for each Senator, I list how I would have voted.
To jumpstart it, I went back a week or so in the entries at
www.redcountycalifornia.com and copied the votes. The results so far show an unsurprising divergence of agreement: of the six votes listed so far, Senator Feinstein receives a "red-flagged tracking score" of 33%; Senator Boxer receives a "red-flagged tracking score" of 20% (she didn't vote on one).
The Senate reconvenes next Monday, July 10th.
Stay tuned. This should be amusing.
