I thought that members of the Senate were directly elected by the people within their state?

If not, then it's almost exactly like the Canadian system. We elect our members of Parliament in the House of Commons, but don't elect the Prime Minister or the Senate.

I thought we were talking about elections in general, in the States The article I linked too is actually a lawsuit over local elections in Ohio. Now that I know more about how the American electoral system works, that makes it even scarier then it was bore.
