The qualifications for being a state senator is defined in Article I, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution in which there are three qualifications.
1. Each senator must be at least 30 years old
2. Must have been a citizen of the United States for at least the past nine years
3. Must be (at the time of the election) an inhabitant of the state they seek to represent.
The qualifications needed to be in the senate are, of course, more stringent then what is needed to be a member of the House of Representatives.
Both the Senate and the House.
Each house of Congress has the power which was established through the U.S. Constitution to judge the elections returns, and qualifications of its members. The Senate created its own practices for judging the qualifications of its members in contested elections. This practice began in 1789.
