because the election of the president was based on the voting rights of free and enslaved people

because Southern states had large populations of enslaved people, which would influence representation

Answer: because Southern states had large populations of enslaved people, which would influence representation

Explanation:

One of Many conflicts arised when drafting the Constitution was whether or not slaves should be counted in the state's census to allot House representatives. The Three-Fifths Compromise established that slaveholding states could count free African Americans and 60 percent of their enslaved population. That 60 percent was also counted for federal taxation, but no such taxes were ever collected.

How do the basic principles of government protect individual rights and impact the functioning of government ?
steposvetlana [31]

The safeguarding of fundamental human rights is crucial for democratic functioning since it is a core tenant of liberal democracy that all citizens are created equal.

<h3>What are human rights?</h3>

Human rights are ethical precepts or rules for particular expectations of human behaviour and are usually safeguarded by domestic and international law. They are usually interpreted as unalienable, fundamental rights that all people, regardless of age, ethnicity, geography, language, religion, or any other status, are "inherent in all human beings" and to which they are "inherently entitled simply because they are a human being." They are universal in the sense that they apply anywhere and they are egalitarian in the sense that everyone is subject to them. They are thought to entail empathy, the application of the law, and a requirement that people respect the human rights of others.
