We really didn&#8217;t know how he voted on various topics so we looked into it further and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.opencongress.org\/people\/voting_history\/400029_Rob_Bishop\">Open Congress<\/a> provided us all the information we needed.  He votes with his party 95% of the time and abstains the other 5%.  <\/p>\n<p>Does any group (i.e. Democrats or Republicans) get it 100% right?  And when they don&#8217;t is it better to tell people what you think or just abstain? <\/p>\n<p>The problem is that if someone votes with the party ALL THE TIME, anyone could do that. You could do it.  I could do it. Frankly, my friend Jason&#8217;s border collie could press the button with the treat next to it every time.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s embarrassing for not only Bishop but for Utah.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.parkrag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/robbishopvotingrecord.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.parkrag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/robbishopvotingrecord.jpg\" alt=\"robbishopvotingrecord\" width=\"711\" height=\"356\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1359\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Note: Our disgust for how Rob Bishop votes doesn&#8217;t mean we endorse Donna McAleer.
