What was the Virginia Plan in the U.S. Constitution?

Check out Wikkipedia which explains it better but Thee Virginia plan was a plan to give the largest states (Virginia at the time) more votes than the smaller states. Needless to say it was widely supported by large states, and heavily contested by small states that were afraid they would get bulldozed by large states. The New Jersey Plan was the alternative (each state gets one vote). In the end the Conneticut compromise was chosen...which gave each state one vote (Senate), but made a second tier of government (House of Representatives) which represented the size of each state.

Who oppose the New Jersey Plan?

When the United States Constitution was being drafted in 1787, the New Jersey Plan was an option proposed by William Paterson, a New Jersey delegate. The Plan called for only one house of Congress with each state to have one vote in Congress instead of the number of votes being based on population. The New Jersey Plan was made as an alternative to the Virginia Plan, which provided for a central government with representation by population. The New Jersey Plan was opposed by the less populous states. The New Jersey Plan was supported by William Patterson, governor of New Jersey. Opposition was led by James Madison and Edmund Randolph (the proponents of the Virginia state Plan).


What plan did William Patterson propose?

He proposed the New Jersey (Paterson) Plan. It counteracted the Virginia plan by saying that all states should have an equal vote in congress. If the number of representatives was based off of population like the Virginia plan suggested, small states would be swallowed up by larger states. The small states would lose their voice in the government.


What type of representation would states under the Virginia Plan?

How did the Virginia plan and New Jersey plan differs?

The New Jersey.called for a unicameral (one house) congress, in which each state would have equal representation. The New Jersey Plan also called for a separate Executive and Judicial branch, which the Articles of Confederation and the Virginia Plan did not call for.
