The full record is in the official EP declarations.
Roll-call voting record
Recorded votes only. Parliament held 6,412 roll-call votes while Marieke Ehlers 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 561 final texts where more than half of PfE members casting a vote went one way, and Marieke Ehlers 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 Marieke Ehlers differed from the PfE majority
142 further instances are not listed. All roll-call votes.
Unlinked but matchable
3 counterpart entries in Marieke Ehlers's declarations appear to match an EU Transparency Register entry without being linked in the declaration:
- “META” - likely Meta Platforms Ireland Limited and its various subsidiaries (1 counterpart entry)
- “Stichting Vluchteling” - likely Stichting Vluchteling (1 counterpart entry)
- “Stichting Vluchteling Refugee platform Egypt Klikaktiv” - likely Stichting Vluchteling (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.
