Wesley Bell
Placed from the roll-call score. Bioguide B001324.
Wesley Bell is the Democrat representative for the House from MO, district 1 in the 119th Congress. The chart uses the October 2026 snapshot. The position is Voteview’s DW-NOMINATE score of the roll calls. Color is the party label. The place is the votes.
The first dimension is -0.455, drawn as economics -45. That is left of center on economics. The second dimension is 0.294, drawn as authority +29. The other axis sits toward authority. Voteview’s second dimension is not a pure social axis. The chart uses the public file anyway, rather than inventing a different number.
Inside the House, this first-dimension score ranks 57 of 433 from the left. The first-dimension score is left of the Democrat median in this chamber (-0.39). The nearest other House scores are Al Green (Democrat, -0.448), James R. Walkinshaw (Democrat, -0.428), James E. Clyburn (Democrat, -0.466). Those names are neighbors on the scale, not a slate.
The member’s official site (https://bell.house.gov), under “Armed Services & International Affairs,” says: “Congressman Bell believes our national security depends on the United States strengthening our alliances, maintaining a strong global force posture, and supporting…” Those are the member’s words. They are not the same thing as the roll-call score.
One left-to-right score cannot say how Wesley Bell would vote on a single bill. The identity and the vote file can be checked at congress.gov through bioguide B001324.
