Prior to the enactment of the seventeenth amendment, why did some states not send two senators to congress? a. they thought senators could work from their states. b. they decided that one senator was enough. c. they could not find two deserving senators. d. they could not decide who to elect.

Sme states didn't send two senators to COngress because C. they could not find two deserving senators.

The correct answer is:

D. They could not decide who to elect.

Originally, each state legislature, regardless of size, elected two state's senators for a six-year term. Electoral deadlocks were a great problem because the system relied on the state legislature's ability to agree but some states could not, and consequently delayed assigning representatives to Congress. In a few cases, the system broke down to the point where states completely lacked representation in the Senate.

The Seventeenth Amendment to the United States Constitution established the popular election of United States Senators by the people of the states.
