The full record is in the official EP declarations.
Roll-call voting record
Recorded votes only. Parliament held 6,412 roll-call votes while Manfred Weber 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 486 final texts where more than half of EPP members casting a vote went one way, and Manfred Weber 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.
Final texts where Manfred Weber differed from the EPP majority

Unlinked but matchable
4 counterpart entries in Manfred Weber's declarations appear to match an EU Transparency Register entry without being linked in the declaration:
- “CER Conference of European Rabbis Stiftung” - likely CER Conference of European Rabbis Stiftung (1 counterpart entry)
- “European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA)” - likely Association des Constructeurs Européens d'Automobiles (1 counterpart entry)
- “Genossenschaftsverband Bayern e.V.” - likely Genossenschaftsverband Bayern (1 counterpart entry)
These are the 3 most frequent matches, covering 3 of the 4 entries; the other 1 is 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.
