Theere was a large spike in views of this article on 8 February 2020. It went up to a remarkable 17 million on that day and it has been consistently high ever since – about 4 million daily views on average. This makes it the most popular Wikipedia article but this seems anomalous because hot news like the pandemic or Kenny Rogers death didn't go so high. Curious ...

Semi-protected edit request on 8 July 2020

Under Current Composition, in addition to listing the number of senators of each party, this page should replicate the table found at the end of the House of Representatives article whereby the number of state delegation majorities is also listed. Obviously, with the Senate, there is considerably higher probability of split delegations so there should be three categories. Ideally, this information would also be listed in the caption box at the top right hand side of the page. This may only be of interest in rare instances, but given that it would determine the likely outcome of a vote in the Senate for the Vice President, it should be clearly and plainly available as a foundational aspect of how the Senate would function in one of its most momentous and important constitutionally manadated functions.

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. This information is already available at List of current United States senators, which is linked from the same place as the table would be placed. Since the number of legations that are majority Democratic or Republican is identical to the number of delegations without a split delegation, this request only repackages information already available. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 19:36, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

The information is not available where you describe. There is map with states colored blue, red, or purple. Why should someone first of all have to dig to find that other page, then count states on a map to come up with the information? Your misreading of this second article and its contents, in addition to your apparent misreading of the justification for the intitial request (namely that people generally will be ignorant of the import of this information unless presented with it, how then would they know to search for it in another place?) suggests a major reading comprehension problem on your part. Is the example demonstrated by the article on the house not a good enough reason to match what is present there in this article? Good grief. I'm not interested in your community of internet weanies. I saw something I thought was glaringly amiss, and took time from my day to (I thought) learn your procedures to bring it to the attention of those supposedly committed to improving this site. The answer given by you? A misstatement that the information is already present somewhere else and that the universe would implode if it was sensibly also included here, coupled with a demand to spend more of my time dealing with your ilk? No thanks. Leave the article in the excecrable state that is is in, so that generalized American ignorance of their own laws and institutions can continue to shock an appall all those capable of reasoned thought. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.137.174.216 (talk) 23:13, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

Request withdrawn. I based my request on what I had read in various recent articles around this process (histrionics about Trump losing the election and remaining President). Wrong with regard to the Senate choosing the VP. I went back and read the actual 12th amendment, and while the House divides itself into state delegations with regard to voting for President, the Senate does not. As I read the 12th, it says the Senate votes. It does not contain the same language about partitioning into state delegations. Thus, each Senator would get a vote, and whomever controls the Senate will choose their preferred candidate. No language with regard to tie breaking here. Presumably, even though it would be the recently elected Senators who would do the voting, the current VP would still vote to break a tie, namely Pence. Thus the party currently outside the Whitehouse would need to have a caucus containing 51 votes if they hoped to choose. There is a small section at the end of the article that mentions the Senate's role in choosing the VP, but no language describing in detail how. If someone with access wishes to improve the article, they could mention that each Senator gets a vote, and that this differs from the House procedure. Whomever might make this effort should check as well that I am correct in my information that it is the newly elected members who vote, and not the previous Senate and include this information as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.137.174.216 (talk) 19:14, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

World's greatest deliberative body

I was just going to add a reference that says a little more about the term "the world's greatest deliberative body." Kathy Kiely in the Washington Post notes that it is attributed to James Buchanan, is often parroted by senators, was cited recently by Chief Justice Roberts, made it onto the official US Senate website, and that "members of the British Parliament might take exception to this self-serving characterization." It is based in part on the supposed ability of senators to talk as long as they want, but new filibuster rules have thwarted that. Also touched upon in the article is that it was designed by the founding fathers to be more deliberative than the populist House, whose members have to run for reelection every two years and thus were supposed to be closer to the whims of the people. (The president at the time was also not directed elected, and obviously fewer were allowed to vote back then, as well.) Today in the Senate says Kathy Kiely, the author of the article, it is rare to see most of the members even show up all at once for a proper debate. The page is partially locked but someone else is free to add any of this if they wish.--100.4.149.184 (talk) 12:27, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

What if the Senate is split evenly between two parties?

At several points in the Article there are references to the leader of the majority party (etc.). What happens if there is no majority party? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mfc (talk • contribs) 07:38, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

The Vice President would be tie breaker and there fore the majority party would be the Vice Presidents party unless the Vice President is a independent in that case there would be no majority or minority party — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.222.180.90 (talk) 15:22, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

the majority leader is decided by the majority party and in the case of a 50/50 split the majority party is decided by the vice president. This means that the new senate majority belongs to a democrat as it is known that both independents will vote for a democratic majority leader. 38.75.232.14 (talk) 18:01, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

On this page, it says Jon Ossoff was given the senior senator position because his name comes first in the alphabet, which is not true. It was determined to be Ossoff because he was elected for a full term and Raphael Warnock was not.

Graph/Diagram of Senate

I asked a question at Wikimedia Commons at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File_talk:117th_United_States_Senate.svg about whether it would be useful to create a diagram on the lines of the diagram for the Scottish Parliament, where thr vice president would get a dot too?

Upper Chamber?

The U.S. Does not have an upper and lower chamber. This is something you learn in any high school government class. The House of Representatives and the Senate are equal. I do not deny that there is more prestige in the Senate - none the less, the Senate is not the upper chamber, and the House is not the lower. Can we change this or cite that formally? Anyone who knows anything knows that's wrong.

I disagree. They are equal technically speaking but the Senate can be regarded as the "Upper Chamber" and the House as the "Lower Chamber." The Senate is certainly "Upper" in the sense that there are less members, each member represents a state in its entirety versus a portion of a state, the minimum age to become a Senator is 30 versus 25 for the House, the Senate has advice and consent powers that the House does not have, etc.--Tpkatsa (talk) 18:09, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

Any evidence Senate has 100 members instead of 101?

Hear me out, please -- the U.S. has 100 senators, that's rather obvious and well-sourced. But is there any evidence that the Senate actually has 100 members?

Since the Vice President is part of the Senate I wonder if the number in the seating diagram should be actually 101. 222.154.237.170 (talk) 20:09, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

The Senate has 100 members, two for each state in the United States. The Vice President is not member, even though the Vice President may be called upon to break a tie vote or sit for ceremonial purposes.--Tpkatsa (talk) 18:11, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

A republic, not a democracy

"Though this was an intentional part of the Connecticut Compromise, critics have described the fact that representation in the Senate is not proportional to the population as "anti-democratic" and "minority rule".

The United States is a republic, not a democracy. The Senate is not and was never intended to be a democratic body (like the House). Even with the direct election of senators, the Senate does not represent the people per se; senators represent sovereign states, and there is a difference between the two types of representation. --Tpkatsa (talk) 18:18, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

First, this idea of "it's not a democracy because it's a republic" is frankly patent nonsense. Is Switzerland not a democracy because it's a republic? Is Finland not a democracy because it's a republic? When you say "country X is a democracy" it means that it has adequate democratic processes. It doesn't mean literally every decision is put up to some popular vote, or that it's some "raw essence" of democracy floating without any other institutions. It means that there may be institutions such as the executive government ministries, military, judiciary (which are explicitly designed to uphold existing law rather than "democratically vote on" creating them), but they are ultimately accountable to the people through the democratic processes.

There's nothing wrong with calling a republic a democracy, just like there's nothing wrong with calling a constitutional monarchy a democracy, if the system is sufficiently governed democratically. This idea of "X is not a democracy, it's a republic" needlessly distracts the whole conversation towards a different topic. Although we can talk about the genuine problems and challenges that a democratic system may face, saying "it's not A, let's talk about Z instead" is not helpful to the discussion.

Second, this whole talk section opened here is irrelevant to the purpose of editing the United States Senate article. Where are your sources to include on proposing this argument and inserting it into the encyclopedia? And what purpose does this proposed edit serve? If you're trying to respond to the criticism, that the unequal representation in the Senate is undemocratic, by stating that this inequality was the way it was intended to be because it's a "republic" (which is, as mentioned, meaningless to bring up), then, why does it have to be that way? Putting aside the merits/flaws of the current Senate structure, why can't the Senate (and the US as a whole) be a democracy, and be structured the way these critics bring up? Your response does nothing to answer the critics because they'll simply reply "well it should be a democracy".

And indeed, this is part of the drive why the Constitution of the United States has been amended over time in the past two centuries, along with the laws of its states: to make the country a better democracy. The Seventeenth Amendment, for instance, changed the senators' election procedure to represent the people of the respective states from the earlier procedure of indirect election by state legislatures - some of which various people at the time thought were corrupt, deadlocked, racially disenfranchised, or unequally apportioned similar to the US Senate (this was before "one person, one vote" on state legislatures). And some legislatures simply didn't want to be defined as electors of senators in the first place (many gave their electing powers to their people via referendums by the time the amendment was ratified). So yes, US senators do represent the "people", just grouped differently from the "people" of the legislative districts for the House of Representatives. (You can argue about whether the reason for this amendment is sound, but I'm just explaining the rationale for its ratification.)

A democratic state isn't necessarily perfect. Plenty of countries, subregions and other bodies (such as the European Union) aren't necessarily perfectly apportioned, and yet they have other elements that are rooted in firm democratic pillars that have proper accountability to their electorate. We don't look at one element that isn't how certain people desire it to be and conclude "there we go, this whole thing is not a democracy because here, a term to describe the entity that has no bearing to this talk". These critics are arguing that the US Senate, with all its powers and prestige, being unequally apportioned is a flaw to the democracy of the United States. You can debate whether or not the Senate structure (or its powers) should change. But replying with "well it is, in fact, not a democracy by design" is not enough to satisfy anyone, and doesn't contribute to the encyclopedic article anyway. 2603:8000:B600:4000:6846:862F:A567:2393 (talk) 00:03, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Potentially, yes, but less so if she sticks with the Democratic Caucus to keep her committee assignments (or for whatever reason). It's interesting that the CNN article appears to be misleadingly inaccurate, claiming a 51-49 majority for the Democrats with the two independents Sanders and King in the Democratic Caucus. If there are 47 Democrats as the Wikipedia article on the Senate indicates, however, that would be a 49-50 minority not including Sinema, whose status seems unclear.

Elections by state

Unless I'm missing something, Louisiana and Mississippi should be switched in the voting systems section of the infobox.
