According to the ad, only 6 Senators were less "effective" legislators than Liddy Dole. So how ineffective is Dole? The 93rd least effective. Someone at the DSCC failed addition 101.

That typo mars the otherwise poignant message that Dole's ads exaggerate her effectiveness.

I think they simply failed to include Frank Lautenberg in the survey because they assumed he was dead already.  Common mistake.

FYI: The real reason is that the survey was done while there was only 99 Senators.  Wicker isn't included on the list.

Presumably, Wicker would be ranked #100 due to lack of incumbancy.  Barasso is #99.

There's the next DSCC ad. "Roger Wicker claims he's effective, but he's ranked dead last in the Senate."

He's still more powerful than Musgrove, who is so ineffective in the Senate that he's not even on the Power List!  Oh no!  Sad

Shocking that she's so ineffective!
