matthewyoung123 Posted February 9, 2023 Author Share Posted February 9, 2023 The last thing that is required of the Constitution is the Slave State Electoral College Compromise. However, if the members of the Convention desire, we can take up other measures after this vote. Option A: Slaves count partially towards Electoral Vote total of states Option B: All slaves count towards Electoral Vote total of states Option C: Slaves not counted towards Electoral vote total of states Action to @Cal, @10centjimmy, @Willthescout7, @ebrk85, @Largo833 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's vote again! @10centjimmy, @Cal, @Willthescout7, @ebrk85, @Largo833 Edited February 9, 2023 by matthewyoung123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewyoung123 Posted February 9, 2023 Author Share Posted February 9, 2023 GA & NC still vote for Option B. DE will shift to voting for Option B. If the other states vote as they did in the first round, that would give option B 9 votes. WillMod pols in MD, NH, & RI will also vote for Option B.
