Answer 2

The election for senators is held every six years because James Madison defended six-year terms for senators, insisting that six-year terms would stabilize the new national government. The senators also have a longer-term because they needed to avoid being unduly threatened by public opinion, or overwhelmed by the House's larger membership, senators would need the protection of longer terms.
