Senate President's Comment Draws Negative Reaction
KENTUCKY....
Kentucky Senate President David Williams has called for repeal of the 17th amendment, which provides for popular election of U.S. senators, a comment which drew negative reaction from sitting senators Mitch McConnell and Jim Bunning. McConnell says giving the choice of senators to legislatures would be "a huge step backward" for democracy. Bunning said popular election is "the proper way to do it."
