Answer:

1. US has 4 years, and Texas has 2 years.

2. US and Texas has 3 branches.

3. US has 9 judges, and Texas has 9 as well.

4. US- Members of Congress in both houses are elected by direct popular vote. Senators are elected via a statewide vote and representatives by voters in each congressional district. ... Each of the 100 members of the Senate is elected to serve a six-year term representing the people of their state.

Texas- Apportionment refers to the way the number of Representatives for each state is determined every 10 years, as required by the Constitution, following a national census. ... Because the House wanted a manageable number of members, Congress twice set the size of the House at 435 voting members.
