Kerry has voted only 14 times out of the Senate's 112 votes this year...

I wonder how this compares with other senators and representatives that have run for another office while holding their current office.

LBJ did. Texas passed a law to allow him to run as a candidate for both the Senate and the Presidency in 1960...

Probably average. Which is why I doubt this issue will go much further in the Senate. No senator, R or D, with aspirations of future higher office is going to deny themselves this prerogative. They all want their cake and to eat it too.
