Additions:
In addition to the roll call number, the web import ID for each member of Congress allows us to import votes directly into Admin. The web import ID is located under the "Offices" tab of each member of Congress' biographical entry in Admin. It must be noted that web import IDs are not the responsibility of the Key Votes Department. Rather, the Research Department is required to enter or amend the web import ID when adding or amending an office of a member of the House or Senate. However, sometimes they fail to add the web import ID, fail to update the web import ID, or incorrectly enter the web import ID. Generally, when this happens to a specific member of Congress, no vote will be imported for that member and they will be absent from the website. When you encounter this, it's best to notify the Research Department. Although, you may feel it's necessary to make the change yourself and re-import the votes so as to ensure that the votes are accurate as soon as possible.
Deletions:
Like the roll call number, the ability to import the votes cast by members of Congress is contingent upon the correct web import ID being applied to each member of congress. It must be noted that web import IDs are not the responsibility of the Key Votes Department.
