On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 66 of 66 decisive votes (0 abstentions excluded). Read it as a government-or-opposition indicator rather than a measure of influence — the figure is near 100% for members supporting the government of the day and near 0% for those opposing it.
This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

Will the Senators who are claiming a division please rise?
As fewer than five Members have risen I declare the question carried. In accordance with Standing Order 61 the names of the Senators dissenting will be recorded in the Journal of the Proceedings of the Seanad.
The Minister, Deputy O'Callaghan, is most welcome to Seanad Éireann for the debate on the motion regarding the proposed approval by Seanad Éireann of a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EU) 2015/848 on insolvency proceedings to replace its Annexes A and B.

They are most welcome as guests of Senator McCarthy. I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy Niamh Smyth, to Seanad Éireann, for what I believe is her …
Before I call the next speaker, I welcome to the Visitors Gallery the aunts and uncle of Albert Dolan TD. Annette, Nuala and Peter are most welcome and I thank them for being in Seanad Éireann. I am sure this is payback for all the canvassing they had to do during the election campaign.
Thank you, Senator.
The guests of Deputy James Geoghegan and the guests of Minister of State, Deputy Jennifer Murnane O'Connor, are most welcome to the House. I hope they enjoy their day.
