I really hate websites like these because they tend to vastly oversimplify the issue. Most of that is likely because people don't understand WHY a politician voted the way they did, they only see the big picture. Legislative decisions can rarely be boiled down to a single yes/no vote, and the politicians don't seem to want it to be that way. Otherwise why not have smaller bills, with single issues: Example: One page legislation. "To purchase a firearm capable of discharging a lethal projectile, the person must first complete a firearm safety course." Hold an up or down yes or no vote. That's clear cut and easy. Vote no, you're voting against this requirement. Voting yes you're voting for this requirement. Instead the bills are hundreds if not thousands of pages long, and the yes/no vote becomes much, much more complicated. Then websites like this come along and oversimply the issue, skipping over the complexity of what the actual vote was on. It's not fair and it is a disservice to the voters.
