The full record is in the official EP declarations.
Roll-call voting record
Recorded votes only. Parliament held 5,568 roll-call votes while Maria Ohisalo held the seat, 537 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 537 final votes held while seated.
With and against the group
On the 427 final texts where more than half of Greens/EFA members casting a vote went one way, and Maria Ohisalo 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 Maria Ohisalo differed from the Greens/EFA majority

Unlinked but matchable
30 counterpart entrys in Maria Ohisalo's declarations appear to match an EU Transparency Register entry without being linked in the declaration:
- “Suomen Kiinteistöliitto” - likely Suomen Kiinteistöliitto (2 counterpart entrys)
- “VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd” - likely VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd (2 counterpart entrys)
- “Ammattiliitto Pro ry” - likely Ammattiliitto Pro (1 counterpart entry)
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.
