The 17th amendment, ratified in 1913, changed they way senators are elected. Prior to 1913, Senators were elected by, and were accountable to, the respective state legislatures. After 1913, senators were chosen by popular election.
The impact of the 17th amendment should be obvious when you consider the dramatic expansion of the federal government in the mid-20th century, with the states powerless to contain it.

The Electoral College is not, as characterized by Hillary Clinton, “an anachronism designed for another time”. It is just another one of the ingenious components of the constitution, devised by the founders, to protect our rights and freedoms.
