You mean in places like CA, IL, NJ, and NY? They will not be elected either. I say repeal: Original intent of the Founders — they apparently had their reasons.
And, no: It will not be perfect — not by a longshot.
However, it is almost guaranteed to heighten interest in local races.....
This would come as news to Senators Hayakawa (R-CA), Pete Wilson (R-CA), Peter Fitzgerald (R-IL), Mark Kirk (R-IL), Clifford Case (R-NJ); Al D'Amato (R-NY); and James F. Buckley (Conservative-NY). All of them were elected by the people in recent decades, and would have never been selected by the Democrat controlled legislatures of their state.
Kirk is serving right now, and D'Amato, Buckley, and Fitzgerald were staunch conservatives that had zero chance of being appointed by their liberal state governments.
