The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each state, elected by the people thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall have one vote. The electors in each state shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the state legislatures.
When vacancies happen in the representation of any state in the Senate, the executive authority of such state shall issue writs of election to fill such vacancies: Provided, that the legislature of any state may empower the executive thereof to make temporary appointments until the people fill the vacancies by election as the legislature may direct.
This amendment shall not be so construed as to affect the election or term of any Senator chosen before it becomes valid as part of the Constitution.
This pretty much means the people of the state get to pick the Senates. It relates to me because my state can pick who they want to represent us in the Senate.
To me this is saying they are easy to come by maybe. Or maybe you can buy them easy? Either way its not up to just one person to pick who the senator is, it's up to the people.
This picture just represent all of the different kinds of people that vote for the Senate.
