How many US senators at present?

The US Senate has 102 Senators and will continue to have the same number (2 per state plus Washington DC) until more states are admitted into the union.


Is senate and senators the same thing?

No. Senators are the elected representatives who, collectively, make up the Senate. In countries which have a Senate (such as Australia and the USA), this means the upper house of a bicameral Parliament. Senators are those people who have been elected to represent the interests of the population of the area they represent.


The number of presidential electors is the same number of what?

The number of electors for a state is determined by the state's representation in Washington. That is, each state has one elector for each senator and one elector for each representative. For example, Wyoming has two senators and one member of the House of Representatives. Therefore, Wyoming has three electors.

Why were senators originally chosen by state legislators?

Senators were to be chosen by state legislatures, because many of the Framers of the US Constitution did not trust the general populace of the country to vote for the right men to be Senators. Once the decision to have two houses of Congress in the form of a Senate and House of Representatives had been made, the idea was that the Senate would be the wiser, more responsible of the two Houses. The Senate was seen in much the same way as the British House of Lords is in comparison to the British House of Commons. The Framers debated four methods of choosing the Senators: by the House of Rpresentatives; by the national executive (President); by the state legislatures; or by the general public. They settled on the state legislatures because they felt each state's Senators should be chosen by the states themselves but that the Senate was too important to be left to the general public. In fact, several framers thought the general public was not much better than a mob.
