Every one of the thirteen colonies voted in favor of the Declaration of Independence. Rhode Island did not send delegates to the Constitutional Convention, but did ratify it after it was finalized.
Rhode Island did not accept the Declaration of Independance. (Sorry for any miss spellings) ; ) LlMm
The only colony which did not immediately sign the U.S. Constitution was Rhode Island. There were 39 delegates who signed it and Benjamin Franklin was the oldest signer at the age of 81.
The Declaration of Indpendence wasn't voted on. It was published.
New York
I assume you are talking about the time after the colonies declared their independence from England, because prior to that time, the King of England did not want the colonists to vote. After the United States became a country, the only people allowed to vote were white men, and usually only those white men who owned land or property. However, it did not take long for average working men to begin to vote too; but women and black people were not allowed to vote at all; and in some states, in those early days, they only allowed Christians to vote (but those laws were soon changed).
All thirteen colonies sent representatives to the Second Continental Congress. The Colony of New Jersey recalled their representatives and so they were not represented for a significant amount of time in 1776. However, their representatives made it to the Congress in time to vote for American Independence on July 2nd and the Declaration of Independence on July 4.
They found out who didn't vote and make them vote.
only the mens
Only white males are able to vote because they are the only citizens in the colonies.Because only citizens are able to vote.
By mutual consent all thirteen had to vote in favor of independence. That's why the formal document (the "Declaration of Independence") specifically points out that this is a unanimous declaration.(This does not mean every single individual in Congress, but that each colony's/state's delegation would vote, and a majority of "no's" in any delegation would defeat the measure.)
The declaration of Independence didn't say anything about a "ruler". It was a letter to the king listing the reasons why the colonies wanted to be free and then declaring independence.
The US Declaration of Independence does not address the issue of who can or cannot vote.
This answer is absolutely false. The Declaration of Independence was signed (by most) by the date of August 1776. The colonies DECLARED independence on July 2, 1776 by a formal vote of congress.
No colony accepted the Declaration they weren't asked to agree or vote on it. The Declaration was written and then published for the colonies to see and read. The publication took place in July of 1776, but Congress didn't vote on it until October 1776.
Federalist such as: Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, John Jay were in favor of the Constitution. Anit-federalists such as: Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, Samuel Adams wanted a Bill of Rights added on to the Constitution, so a compromise was made and the Bill of Rights was added.
On July 4,1776, the US Declaration of Independence was released to the press. It had been approved by vote of the Continental Congress on July 2. It declared that the former 13 colonies were now the United States of America, and were severing all ties with Great Britain.This is the date the United States adopted the Declaration of Independence, declaring its Independence from Great Britain.On July 4,1776, the US Declaration of Independent was released to the press.

On July 2, 1776, by voice vote in the Second Contintal Congress, the colonies adopted a resolution that they were now free of British control. Two days later, the written Declaration of Independence was approved and adopted as the way to announce independence to the world. The journal of the Second Continental Congress recorded the resolution. John Adams said that people will remember July 2, 1776 forever and celebrate it every year. He was off by two days. Few people know of the voice vote taken on July 2, but now you do too.
No, it didn't.
