Very large BINGO!!!!!!!

Reason number one why the Seventeenth amendment is on its face unconstitutional. The term for popularly elected Representatives is two years.

The Seventeenth amendment turns Senators into popularly elected Representatives rather than the Constitutionally mandated title of Senator chosen by State Legislatures with a term of six years.
