Best Answer

It proposed a bicameral legislative branch. The upper house, the senate, would have two representatives from each state. This satisfied the small states' plea for equal representation in Congress. The lower house, The House of Representatives, would please the large states in the way that state representation in the House was based off population. Larger states had more representation in the House, but representation was equal in the senate.

How many US senators does Kentucky have?

Every state has two senators because representation in the Senate is equal among states of all population sizes. Thus, Kentucky has two Republican senators in the 112th Congress, Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul. McConnell is the Republican Leader in the Senate. Meanwhile, representation in the House of Representatives is based on population. There are currently 435 Representatives. Of these, Kentucky has six: Whitfield, Ed, Kentucky, 1st district Guthrie, S. Brett, Kentucky, 2nd district Yarmuth, John A., Kentucky, 3rd district Davis, Geoff, Kentucky, 4th district Rogers, Harold, Kentucky, 5th district Chandler, Ben, Kentucky, 6th district The purpose of having each US state have two senators is a check on states with large populations. Having a small state having a say and influence is best served by the current system. The House representatives are based on a states population. This is equalized by the two senator per state concept.
