Ideology and Voting
DW-Nominate Scores
Senator Johnson has only served as a congressmen during two congresses so there really hasn't been enough time in order to determine a pattern but in both the 112th congress and the 113th congress, Senator Johnson has scored a 0.717 which means he has been very consistent in his voting and that his voting has been a lot more on the conservative side of the issues.
Party Unity Scores
The same problem as above occurs here in that there just really hasn't been enough time to develop a long lasting pattern but in the two congresses in which Senator Johnson has served he has scored a 96.679 in the 112th and a 97.465 in the 113th which means that Senator Johnson almost always votes the party line and even more so recently.Interest Group Scores
Project Vote Smart shows various scores on how interest groups rate the different members of Congress. These scores could be important when deciding for whom to vote especially to those individuals who vote for a candidate based on their stances on very specific issues such as abortion, gun control, etc. Senator Johnson has scores that, I would assume, would be pretty typical of any other Republican congressmen.- 100% - National Right to Life Committee (2014)
