Ruben Gallego
Placed from the roll-call score. Bioguide G000574.
Ruben Gallego is the Democrat senator for the Senate from AZ 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 -0.356, drawn as economics -36. That is left of center on economics. The second dimension is 0.136, drawn as authority +14. The other axis sits near the middle. 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 Senate, this first-dimension score ranks 24 of 100 from the left. The first-dimension score is close to the Democrat median in this chamber (-0.36). The nearest other Senate scores are Tammy Duckworth (Democrat, -0.347), Ben Ray Luján (Democrat, -0.380), Angela D. Alsobrooks (Democrat, -0.455). Those names are neighbors on the scale, not a slate.
A short public-record note says: Arizona Democrat. Former Marine, now a senator, mainstream liberal score. The score is the placement. The sentence only names what the record is already known for.
