The 12th Amendment enhances representative democracy by establishing a clearer process for electing the President and Vice President, ensuring that both are chosen together by the Electoral College, which promotes accountability and coherence in leadership. The 17th Amendment further strengthens this system by allowing for the direct election of U.S. Senators by the people, rather than through state legislatures, thereby increasing voter engagement and reducing corruption in the selection process. Together, these amendments empower citizens and ensure that elected officials are more directly accountable to their constituents.
