What a joke.

BTW, has a person ever represented two different States in the US Senate? I could see this happening in the early 19th, when the country was still populating itself and new States were created every couple years, but I'm not sure.

James Shields served as Senator for three different states:

Illinois, from October 1849 to March 1855.  He missed the first few months of the six-year term as he had not been a citizen for the requisite nine years---he had to run in a special election to replace himself after his original election was voided.

Minnesota, from May 1858 (statehood) to March 1859.

Missouri, from January to March 1879 (elected to replace a deceased Senator for the remainder of his term).

There are a few others who have represented two different states.
