Looking at the votes...I was interested to see that there are seven states that have less congressmen than senators! These are called 'at large' districts and cover the whole state.

Alaska
Delaware

North Dakota
South Dakota

It's because of the way the whole thing was set up. Every state gets 2 senators, regardless of size. At the time it was set up the population was tiny compared to today and they wanted everyone to have a voice. So California has the same number of senators as Rhode Island. Congressional districts are population based.Looking at the votes...I was interested to see that there are seven states that have less congressmen than senators!
