Based on this reading, “people” elect the senate. If “people” includes travelers, does that mean travelers get to vote?

They aren’t prohibited by the constitution. In many jurisdictions, non-citizen residents can vote in local elections.

It depends on state/city law. In San Francisco, for example, non-citizens who have school-age kids can vote in local school board elections (as of last year).
