I'm not so sure about that, the 17th Amendment effectively ended the Republic by taking away the states' voices. AZ has had a long history of Republican Legislatures, but the people have elected either RINO or Democrat senators. None of them would have been appointed or elected by our Legislature or they would have been recalled if they acted in opposition to the Legislature.
