Yes, that is true of U. S. Senators and U. S. Representatives. State Senators have districts from which the are elected. Of course, for states that have one U. S. Representative, the whole state is their district. They are known as At Large Representatives.

U. S. Senators
From 1788 to 1912, U. S. Senators were elected by their state legislatures.
Since 1914, each U. S. Senator is elected by the voting public of his/her state.
There are 100 U. S. senators.
U. S. Senators and Representatives are elected by direct public vote. Each Senator is elected by all the voters of the state he/she represents, and each Representative is elected by the voters of his/her congressional district within the state. A Senator's term is six years; the term of a Representative is two years. There are no term limits for U. S. Senators and Representatives. Representatives are always elected on the day after the first Monday of November of even-numbered years (unless a special election is needed to fill a vacant seat).
There are 100 U. S. senators.
Yes, since the April, 1913 ratification of the 17th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution.
1788... 21 U. S. Senators took office on 4 March 1789. 12 of them were elected in 1788, and nine of them were elected in 1789.
That sounds like a trick question, because babies don't vote. Every U. S. Senator is elected by the voters of the entire state which he/she represents, as opposed to a U. S. Representative, who is elected by the voters of only his/her district.
