Roll-call voting record
Recorded votes only. Parliament held 6,412 roll-call votes while Andreas Schwab held the seat, 606 of them the final vote on a text. A member with no vote recorded may have been on parliamentary business, ill, on leave, or present without voting - the published record does not distinguish these and gives no reason. Votes taken by show of hands or by secret ballot are not recorded by name and are absent here.
How they voted on final texts
Share of the 606 final votes held while seated.
With and against the group
On the 546 final texts where more than half of EPP members casting a vote went one way, and Andreas Schwab also voted. Groups are not bound to vote together: a Member's mandate is personal and exercised freely, so neither figure is a measure of performance.

Unlinked but matchable
10 counterpart entries in Andreas Schwab's declarations appear to match an EU Transparency Register entry without being linked in the declaration:
- “Chamber of Progress Kay Jebelli” - likely Chamber of Progress (1 counterpart entry)
- “Check My Ads” - likely Check My Ads (1 counterpart entry)
- “E3G” - likely Third Generation Environmentalism Ltd (1 counterpart entry)
These are the 3 most frequent matches, covering 3 of the 10 entries; the other 7 are not listed.
Matching is automated and can be wrong - see how matching works. Linking the register entry is the fix, and it is the MEP office's to make.
