  • 2007 – 2008 Scorecard
    2007-2008 LEGISLATIVE BIENNIUM VERMONT environmental scorecard VERMONT LEAGUE OF CONSERVATION VOTERS KNOW THE SCORE he Vermont League of Conservation Voters is T a nonpartisan political organization working to turn your environmental values into state priorities. We seek to make environmental protection a top priority for elected officials, candidates, and voters. HOW THE VOTES WERE SELECTED his scorecard is based on the legislative priorities of the environmental and T conservation organizations that form the Vermont Environmental Collaborative as well as other environmental issues. Determining factors in the decision to list particular votes include whether the vote was substantive or procedural in nature, and which vote had the greatest effect on the outcome of the legislation. Please note the limitations of this report. Only roll call votes have been included, as voice votes are not recorded by name. A simple numeric score beside a legislator’s name cannot convey the depth of discussions about the issues, nor can it clearly indicate which legislators worked to protect the environment and which legislators worked to undermine environmental protections. This is particularly true when it comes to work done in the committee room. HOW THE VOTES WERE SCORED he scores were calculated by dividing the number of pro-environmental votes made T by the number of votes the legislator had the opportunity to cast. Absences were counted as a negative vote. Votes during which the Speaker of the House or the President Pro Tem of the Senate presided over their bodies were not counted either way. VLCV did not score legislators who served in 2007 but not 2008.
