1787, also known as the Connecticut Compromise or Sherman Compro- mise (after Roger Sherman). The report called for a lower house with one representative for every 40,000 inhabitants, utilizing three-fifths of each state’s slave population for this purpose. Benjamin Franklin modified Sherman’s proposal to make it more palatable to larger states by requir- ing that bills raising revenue would originate in the House. The compro- mise also called for a Senate with one vote per state. This compromise was opposed by several delegates, including Madison and others who believed in a strong national government. However, Rufus King of New York and Gouverneur Morris of Pennsylvania added one more compromise that gave each of
the state’s senators their own individ- ual vote. This was enough to secure an agreement and ultimately the rati- fication of the US Constitution. There were countless other issues that could have derailed the drafting and ratification of our Constitution. But when we reflect upon our votes this November, perhaps enthusias- tic about our candidates or unhappy with the choices before us, let us not forget the fortitude, determination, and goodwill of those without whom no such options would exist.
