Question

How is each state assigned their total number of members in the Senate?

Answer 1

Answer:

Each state sends two senators to the United States Senate to represent them. A state's representation in the House of Representatives, on the other hand, is determined by its population. Smaller states, such as Vermont and Delaware, have one representative, whereas major states, such as California, have 53.

Answer 2

Answer:

There are two senators for each state and they are elected by the citizens of that state. It is one vote per person. If a senator is elected, they serve six-year terms; they are representatives of their state.

What is the Senate?
