Don't we have elections for senators and representatives? It is just to replace the dead ones? What about incumbents?
Think about it
it didn't help have another site i can use
Perhaps reading my previous answer will help
Because of the balance of powers, no single branch of government is more powerful than another. Courts can overrule laws past by legislatures (t they are unconstitutional), and presidents can veto their laws.

"Legislative Branch
The legislative branch of government is made up of the Congress and government agencies, such as the Government Printing Office and Library of Congress, that provide assistance to and support services for the Congress. Article I of the Constitution established this branch and gave Congress the power to make laws. Congress has two parts, the House of Representatives and the Senate."
