how could the trusts purchase a senat seat?

Question

what bias did the foounding fathers demostarte in their procedure for electing senators?

Answer 1

The Framers did not envision the direct election of senators by us as it is today. The Constitution had to be amended in order for that to happen. Before the early twentieth century, we elected the state legislators who in turn elected the senators. I am not quite getting what the first question means.
