I haven’t look into it with any depth, but I kind of feel recall elections should be possible especially for US Senators.
They’re not. It’s absolutely something that should have been implemented, but there just isn’t any mechanism for legally ousting sitting Senators other than them being indicted on criminal charges. Otherwise Fetterman would have been gone ages ago and would never have been able to participate in this farcical “deal”.
Senators can be expelled if 67 of them vote for it, but that’s about it. Which means if the Republicans ever got 67 Senators, there would never be a Democrat or Independent in there again.
