Senator, New York · 2001–2009

Hillary Clinton

Two Senate terms, then secretary of state and the 2016 presidential nomination. A mainstream Democrat in the chamber.

Hillary Clinton is on the former-members chart, not the current Congress. The office on file is Senator, New York, 2001–2009. The placement note is: Two Senate terms, then secretary of state and the 2016 presidential nomination. A mainstream Democrat in the chamber.

The dot is economics -20 and authority +6. That is left of center on economics. The other axis sits near the middle. Former members are placed from the public career, not from a 119th Congress Voteview score.

No separate “said, then did” note is on file. The career sentence above is the whole of the written placement. It names the public fact the dot is built from, and it stops there.

The nearest other former members on these two numbers are Tom Foley (-18 / +6) and Daniel Inouye (-22 / +6). Nearness is not a school of thought.

This page does not add votes that are not in the placement note. The bills themselves are in the Congressional Record for those years.
