A lot of people are unaware that originally, members of the US Senate were elected by the state legislatures. I believe it was the 27th amendment that abolished that practice and gave it to the people to vote on. I have had mixed feelings about that. Currently, we have more conservative state legislatures than leftist legislatures. From that, we could extrapolate that we would currently have a fairly healthy majority in the US Senate, which would certainly be a good thing. How does the Nebraska legislature lean?
That's the 17th amendment and it's horrible. The Senate is supposed to represent the interests of the States, and the House is supposed to represent the interests of the people. That's why Senators should be selected by the state legislatures and Congressmen are elected by the people. Only when the States and the People agree can legislation be passed.
The Nebraska legislature leans GOP.
You seem to know a lot, Beerman. Perhaps you could make some posts about various things to enlighten people here. That would be great.
