Kind of.

Harris: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/members/kamala_harris/412678

Sanders: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/members/bernard_sanders/400357

There are some who voted ideologically closer. But the fact that she’s somewhere between Sanders and Warren is reassuring.

That's a crazy helpful site. Thanks for sharing.

that website is very sus because it paints democrats who voted against gay marriage; supported anti-gay federal service members; voted for inescapable student loans; supported segregationists; etc. as only slightly more liberal than democrats that never did those things.

i bet they either skewed the x axis or weighted some votes to get the graph to look like a continuum instead of a few distantly separated clouds.
