Imagine if we never changed how US senators are elected, and the Florida house and Florida Senate couldn't agree who our next Senator would be.
Suppose this happened regularly.
What would you propose to fix it?

Elect members of the state legislature that would work together for the needs of the State. After all, that's the job.

Do you think that the popular vote "fixed" the situation? How exactly has that worked out for the State of Florida?

Senators elected today have only one job in mind... that is to win the next election. They don't represent the State as the job originally was intended.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
