what percentage does fetterman vote with democrats

John Fetterman is often described as voting with Democrats most of the time, but not always. A recent source characterized him as voting against Trump’s positions about three-quarters of the time , which suggests he is not a straight-party-line senator.

Quick take

His voting record has made him a standout Democrat because he sometimes breaks with his party on high-profile votes, even while remaining a Democrat.

What that means

  • He is still a Democratic senator from Pennsylvania.
  • He has drawn attention for voting with Republicans on some issues and against Democrats on others.
  • That mix is why people keep asking whether he is drifting away from the party, or just keeping an independent streak.

Plain answer

If you want the simplest answer: roughly 75% is the best recent shorthand from available reporting, but that number can vary depending on the vote set being discussed.

TL;DR: Fetterman votes with Democrats a lot, but he’s not reliably in lockstep; one recent estimate put him at about three-quarters alignment on Trump-related positions.
