AUGUSTA – State Sen. David Woodsome of Waterboro posted a perfect voting record in the Maine Senate during the 128th Legislature.
He also had a 100 percent voting attendance record in the 127th Legislature, meaning he has never missed a vote for his entire time as a state senator.
The Senate had 657 roll call votes during the First and Second Regular Sessions of the 128th Legislature and Senator Woodsome was present for all of them.
“The people of my district elected me to represent them,” Senator Woodsome said. “We had many important pieces of legislation to consider over the past two years, and I wanted to make sure I recorded my vote on every one of them.
“It’s my hope that the legislature will reconvene in the near future to consider and vote on all bills left unresolved when the legislature adjourned this past April.”
Senator Woodsome represents Senate District 33, which includes the communities of Cornish, Limerick, Newfield, Parsonsfield, Sanford, Shapleigh and Waterboro.
He is the chair of the Legislature’s Energy, Utilities, and Technology Committee and also serves on the Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Committee.
The voting totals for the Second Regular Session of the 128th Legislature were compiled by the Office of the Secretary of the Senate.
