Personally I’d love to see a serious push to overturn the 17th amendment but I would be satisfied to see electoral votes handed out according to congressional district wins.

Has anyone done an analysis of whether that would have affected the result this time?

If we could overturn the seventeenth AND the nineteenth and require that all persons voting must own property, pay taxes, speak English and be able to read, write and understand the constitution in English things would absolutely take a turn for the better, no doubt about it. It wouldn’t be a big deal whether they were actually citizens or not if they met the above qualifications.
