Virginia is a perfect example of why the 17th amendment is truly evil. The VA state legislature is overwhelmingly conservative. If the 17th amendment were to be repealed the VA state legislature would replace both of our current Democrat lunes with sold Conservative Republicans. The 17th and the 16th A’s need to be repealed.

Just playing the devils advocate here, but that would work equally the same in a liberal controlled legislator. I don’t get the difference other than the LIV would no longer vote for Senators.

What happens when the lune majority realize that the state legislature isn't voting their way?
