The two Senate per state and the resulting +2 electoral votes are more than just a legacy from the States Rule era.
They allow better representation of rural agricultural areas. Otherwise important pursuits like growing food may get ignored and trampled on by the voter demands from heavily populated cities.

That would be Representitives. Both Senators and Representitives are Congressmen.

Ach, you're right. Ah well, at least I got the numbers right; I missed the term. Oops.
