I think the Roman people elected the Senators. The Citizens only, but no women or children or slaves. Ancient Roman Senators were not elected--at least not directly. If a man became elected to the office of Quaestor, he automatically became a senator. That's the closest thing to an "elected" senator that Rome had. Other means of entry into the senate were by appointment and by proving a financial worth of at least a million sesterces.

The ruling class of emperor and senators, the rich, the artists artisans and tradesmen, women, labourers, slaves.
No, the Roman senators could not be expelled from the senate or sold as slaves because the senate needed money. The senate was the senators. The senators would not do such things to themselves. Moreover, the senators came from the patricians (the upper tier of the aristocracy) and equites (the lower tier of the aristocracy). It would have been unthinkable to sell members of the elite as slaves.
Roman senators are not like anything today. The last ones died a very long time ago.

With the exception of working in mineral extraction Roman slaves probably had it better. A Roman slave could earn his freedom or advance himself which was not the case with plantation slaves in the deep south.
