How many states had to vote for the constitution to approve it
Mazyrski [523]

From the 13 states in the US at the end of the 18th century, <u>three-quarters of them or nine states</u> had to approve the constitution for it to be formally adopted. The debates took place in Philadelphia. It happened during the constitutional convention in 1787 with the elected delegates from different states. The discussions were long and tight, but the constitution managed to obtain the vote of enough states. This rule was applied since 1789.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The states that accepted the constitution are:

  • Delaware: December 7, 1787  
  • Pennsylvania: December 12, 1787  
  • New Jersey: December 18, 1787  
  • Georgia: January 2, 1788  
  • Connecticut: January 9, 1788  
  • Massachusetts: February 6, 1788  
  • Maryland: April 28, 1788  
  • South Carolina: May 23, 1788  
  • New Hampshire: June 21, 1788  
  • Virginia: June 25, 1788  
  • New York: July 26, 1788  
  • North Carolina: October 21, 1789  
  • Rhode Island: May 29, 1790

These delegates elected by the population of the states who voted this constitution, except in Delaware, New Jersey and Georgia where referendums were made. The debates took a long time because the states did not agree on how to organize the country. The main opposition was between the big and the small states. Virginia represented the big states and New Jersey for the small.
