The representatives are meant to directly represent the people. The senate was meant to represent the LEGISLATURE of that state, at least in my interpretation. Having the senate now also represent the people's will is redundant. It's basically a unicameral congress in that regard if they're not different

You make an excellent case for abolishing the Senate
