Example sentences for: lcv

How can you use “lcv” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • * Pedant's Corner : the erroneous 85 to 66 percent calculations were almost certainly arrived at by averaging the yearly LCV scores; but LCV calculates a legislator's lifetime score by adding up all his pro-environment votes and dividing that number by the total number of LCV-scored votes that took place while he was in Congress.

  • So Chatterbox knocked those years out of Gore's LCV lifetime score, too.

  • The Broder article (or, more likely, the Friends of the Earth handout that Broder was paraphrasing) slightly botched the two candidates' respective scores from the League of Conservation Voters (LCV)--whose ratings go pretty much unquestioned within the environmental movement.

  • Instead, Chatterbox zeroed in on the two years when Gore cast considerably more votes considered "anti-environment" by the LCV than he did in other years.

  • Because of a typo on the LCV scorecard for Bradley, Chatterbox momentarily thought Gore had been rooked; dividing Bradley's lifetime total of 172 pro-environment votes by 214, which the scorecard presents as the total number of LCV-scored votes that took place during Bradley's years in Congress, Chatterbox got not 84 percent but 80 percent .
