Waltermitty, what you fail to understand in your assumptions is the construction of voting as a right.
The 'right' to do something involves either a right that would allow someone to do something as a libertarian believes, or a right of entitlement as a collectivist believes. Voting generally falls under the latter as it requires a collective action. And I do not speak for all libertarians when I say this.
Seriously, if you had everything you needed and all poor people were cared for, and an autonomous leader held your same beliefs, would it matter whether or not he was 'elected'?
As far as the actual question goes, Joe Republic hit it on the head. Senate was not meant to be a clone of the House.
