Voting analysis

Ashley Moody's departure rate is well under half her state colleague's. Florida seats two Republican senators and the group figure on this page is dragged upward almost entirely by the other one — which is the risk of a two-member comparison. With a group this small, the average is not a benchmark so much as the other person's number.

Among the 2 Republicans in the Florida delegation, the average rate of voting against the party majority is 9.0%. Ashley Moody is below that average at 4.6%.

Where she broke ranks

Seven times, and every one on an amendment. Six were rejected by the chamber; one was agreed to. In most she was a yes where her conference was a no, which in Senate practice often means supporting an amendment leadership would rather not have voted on at all.

Staged accidents

One of her bills addresses staged accident fraud — collisions arranged deliberately so that claims can be filed on them. It is organised crime conducted through the insurance system, and it shows up in statute because the ordinary fraud provisions were not built for a scheme that manufactures its own evidence.
