Recorded votes
Al Landis cast 2,475 Yea or Nay votes on the roll calls we hold, across 6 terms from 2011 to 2026, all in the Ohio General Assembly, from the Ohio Legislature. Each term opens to every roll call, with the question, the result, how Al Landis voted and how the majority of their party voted.
| Term | Chamber | Yea | Nay | Did not vote | With party |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 136th General Assembly, 2025–2026 | Ohio Senate, district 31 | 240 | 1 | not recorded | 100% of 32 |
| 135th General Assembly, 2023–2024 | Ohio Senate, district 31 | 242 | 0 | not recorded | 100% of 51 |
| 132nd General Assembly, 2017–2018 | Ohio House, district 98 | 358 | 2 | not recorded | 100% of 44 |
| 131st General Assembly, 2015–2016 | Ohio House, district 98 | 339 | 6 | not recorded | 100% of 34 |

| 129th General Assembly, 2011–2012 | Ohio House, district 96 | 624 | 50 | not recorded | 99.6% of 223 |
"With party" counts only roll calls on which most Republicans and most Democrats voted opposite ways. The Ohio Legislature records who voted Yea and who voted Nay and no one else, so an absence cannot be told from an abstention and neither is counted; only floor votes are listed.
