what is the missing delegates of the philadelphia convention of 1787 **** Rhode Island did not attend the conventions in 1787. ****
Caucuses. The delegates all attend the national party convention at the end of summer/beginning of fall and formally cast their votes for the candidates they already pledged their vote to. Candidates often drop out as the primaries go on if they feel they are not going to win. The delegates awarded to them then have to vote for someone else at the convention.
True.
With the exception of Rhode Island, it was the original states, collectively, that chose the delegates to attend the Constitutional Convention. Several prominent Founding Fathers were not able to attend, such as Thomas Jefferson.
These are the people who will attend the convention for their states and will vote as a block for the candidate to run for president.
he did not attend the Constitutional Convention!
Rhode Island was not there because it never appointed delegates to attend the Convention.
Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry. Also, Rhode Islands delegates did not attend.
