| | In most democratic countries with bicameral legislatures the ‘lower’, or popular, chamber is the more powerful but there are exceptions, the most notable being in the USA, where the upper chamber, the Senate, is constitutionally more powerful than the lower, the House of Representatives. | | | In the USA, both chambers are elected, whereas in the UK, the lower chamber, the House of Commons, is elected and the upper chamber, the House of Lords, is filled by hereditary members or appointees. | | | The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, chosen by the legislature thereof, for six Years; and each Senator shall have one Vote. |
