My thought is that the states should decide how representatives are chosen. I think having state legislators pick a representative would encourage people to pay more attention to and maybe participate in their state elections.

It could. But states governments work like the federal, right? So couldn't the houses hold a vote or something, so that it's not one person picking?

My thought is if the politicians in the state practice this kind of cronyism or change the rules to fit their agenda, wouldn't it be an unpopular move with the citizens of the state? Wouldn't it hurt their election changes when elections come up? Or am I giving the population too much credit?

*changes = chances

Also, do you think it would still be as much of an issue today considering that information is much more readily available than it was when the amendment was passed?

What if we repeal the 17th AND implement term limits.

Sounds like we just fixed all the world's problems.

This whole time, Gavin was a Russian bot.
