Recorded votes
Beth Liston cast 1,196 Yea or Nay votes on the roll calls we hold, across 4 terms from 2019 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 Beth Liston 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 16 | 198 | 37 | not recorded | 97% of 32 |
| 135th General Assembly, 2023–2024 | Ohio House, district 8 | 256 | 46 | not recorded | 93% of 42 |
| 134th General Assembly, 2021–2022 | Ohio House, district 21 | 289 | 85 | not recorded | 91% of 81 |
| 133rd General Assembly, 2019–2020 | Ohio House, district 21 | 239 | 46 | not recorded | 97% of 36 |
"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.
