Gary J. Palmer
Placed from the roll-call score. Bioguide P000609.
Gary J. Palmer is the Republican representative for the House from AL, district 6 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 0.670, drawn as economics +67. That is right of center on economics. The second dimension is 0.113, drawn as authority +11. 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 House, this first-dimension score ranks 390 of 433 from the left. The first-dimension score is right of the Republican median in this chamber (0.53). The nearest other House scores are Ron Estes (Republican, 0.647), John W. Rose (Republican, 0.654), Pat Fallon (Republican, 0.712). Those names are neighbors on the scale, not a slate.
