Senate votes while running for President compared to the other Senators running for 2016 and the 4Senators who ran in 2008 - INCLUDING Senators Clinton and Obama.
During the period ranging from 10-12 months before the General election (and in fact during the ENTIRE period since Sanders declared) Sanders has missed about 5% of votes, while HRC missed around 83.5% (!!) during the comparable period in 2007.
