Senator. The dealbreaker is the phone-banking.

Senator, assuming that I get to actually give the POTUS some ADVICE about who to appoint to the Supreme Court (that's part of ADVISE and CONSENT, right?).

I’d rather be a safe representative in a gerrymandered district than a swing state senator

Senate. I don't really care enough about local issues to effectively campaign as a Rep, and I like that the Senate is higher prestige.

Not only the Supreme Court!
There's also Circuit Courts, District Courts, Cabinet members, Ambassadors...

Representative. I have no desire for a high profile. I have no desire for power. I have no desire to juggle the interests of conflicting parties across my whole state. I feel I'd make a much more effective legislator for my local community.
