Hopefully abolished. It's undemocratic, unnecessary and just plain stupid. Elections lead to majorities in Congress, Parliament, whatever you want to call it. Majorities should be able to pass their agenda as they see fit.
A majority in the U.S. Senate isn't a democratic majority.

Yes, it is.

And wouldn't that favour Republicans rather than Democrats.
