the portion of the senate that is elected every 2 years is one third of them have to run for re-election. they do this because if someone new is elected, then they can become aclimated and all that so that if all new people were elected, then a whole huge amount of time isn't spent on trying to get them aclimated to how things run or work or whatever. hope this answers your question.

thanks for reading,

None of the Senators are elected every 2 years, a senator is elected every six years, what your thinking of is the House of Representatives and they have 435 members.
