That's because the cities elect the senators. Needs to be fixed.
Texas has Johny Wayne McCornyn - The No.2 in the Senate, a close buddy of the great Senate Majority Leader from Kentucky. No, cities alone do not elect Senators in many states. Maine, R.I. and a few tiny states do indeed have this problem.
Maybe Maine should merge back with Massachusetts :)

Ain't no such senator...John Cornyn (R-TX) is a RINO.
cities alone do not elect Senators in many states
They do where the majority of the population live in cities (most states) Senators are elected "at large"...everyone in the state can vote for them.
Cities vote RAT. Maine, R.I. and a few tiny states do indeed have this problem.

HELL NO!!!!!
I live in Maine’s 2nd Congressional District, which is light years more conservative than Massachusetts.
This district covers 80% of Maine and has the only Republican congressman in New England. This district also went for Trump in November 2016.
Maine currently has Paul LePage as governor....one of the most conservative governors in the country.
Maine has both Concealed Carry and Constitutional Carry.
No thank-you to Massachusetts!

Maybe even...

The Seventeenth Amendment (Amendment XVII) to the United States Constitution established the popular election of United States Senators by the people of the states.
I just told you the reason why.
God no! We have enough illegals, ME can keep their demented Somali’s.
