The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The first Congress add a Bill of Rights to the constitution to outline the rights of individuals.

During the Constitutional Convention, federalists and anti-federalists debated on their respective arguments. The federalists -led by Alexander Hamilton- favored a strong central government. The antifederalists -led by Thomas Jefferson- did not agree on the idea of having a strong central government that limited the sovereignty of the states, considering that a risk of a government becoming a tyrant. Antifederalists considered that a Bill of Rights that protected the citizen was necessary to limit the power of the government. That is when James Madison drafted the Bill of Rights.

Answer:

The Bill of rights are the first 10 Amendments of our constitution. The reason that congress implemented them is because without those 10 Amendments there is no security against a tyrannical government.

Factor 1:  Who decides to run for office and what advantages candidates have over one another.

Factor 2:  Incumbency.  Usually the incumbent (the person already serving in the office) has a large advantage over challengers, unless negative events have the voters wanting to get rid of incumbents.

Factor 3:  The way congressional districts are drawn.  There have been court cases recently about "gerrymandering" -- attempts by a party in power to draw district boundaries in ways that will serve to perpetuate that party's power.
