Does a senator' constiency differ from that of a typical member of the house?

Answer 1

Senators are elected by state, not by district. (Most representatives represent only a portion of a state, though the least populous states may have only one representative.)

For the majority of representatives, then, they are representing a fairly small (in population, not necessarily size) group of people, who are most likely rather more homogeneous in their culture, economic status, and interests than the constituency of a senator.

Answer 6

There are many things that differentiate between senators and representatives. For instance, every state should have 2 senators, but only 1 representative. Also, senators are elected for 6 years, while representatives are elected for 2 years.

Answer 7

A senator's constituents are the residents of the entire state they are senator of.

A congressperson's (a member of the house's) constituents are the residents of their district. This is sometimes an entire state, but most often not.
