Multihomed route visibility

We are advertising the same prefix to ISP A & ISP B. When looking at various route servers across the world, I always 
see the path through ISP A in the BGP table, but most don't show a path at all through ISP B (some do, like Oregon IX). 
I would expect any router with the full table to show both routes. Is this a consequence of how the route servers are 
peered up? Are they only displaying the preferred path? ISP Issue? Am I missing something?

Any help would be appreciated.
