How many votes needed to expel a member of the house or senate?

None. A senator or congressmen cannot be expelled since they were elected by the people for the people. If the controversy is big enough the Senator or congressmen will resign. If a member was expelled then the views of the people from that area would not be expressed. So the people themselves have the right to remove people from office when election rolls around. Ok, so why is it that in order to expel a senator form the Senate, two thirds of the Senate must agree? They can expel, but only with a two thirds vote, setting a very high requirement for a senator to be expelled because, like the previous answer the guy wrote, they were elected for the people by the people, and setting a low requirement by easily expelling a senator, would just indicate that the views of the people from that state area would not be expressed. There is an expel requirement, and you can see that in Article 1, Section 5, Clause 2 of the Constitution
