Want this question answered?
55 delegates attended the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. 2 from New Hampshire. 3 sent each from New York, and Connecticut. Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and North Carolina each sent 5. Georgia, Massachusetts, and South Carolina each sent 4. Pennsylvania sent 8, and Virginia sent 7. Rhode Island refused to send any delegates, and Patrick Henry refused to attend stating he "smelled a rat in Philadelphia, tending toward the monarchy."
The number of delegates that Colorado sends to the Democratic National Convention varies slightly each year. 86 were sent to the last one in 2012.
They all did ratify, but some battles were harder than others. It depended on how many delegates had been there (Pennsylvania was one of the first 9 to ratify and it had 8 delegates), which delegates they were, and how many Anti-Federalists there were. The fight for ratification in New York was particularly bitter, as they had one delegate (who lost his vote when the other 2 NY delegates left), a slew of ardent Anti-Federalists, and several nasty exchanges in the ratification convention. It was actually that that led to the creation of the Federalist Papers. Other states were easier, like Delaware, which was the first state because it was the first to ratify.

The delegates sent to Philadelphia were authorized to revise the Articles of Confederation and to create a new framework for a stronger central government, which ultimately led to the drafting of the United States Constitution during the Constitutional Convention of 1787.

There were 70 delegates chosen, but only 55 participated in the Convention and only 39 signed the Constitution. Delegates were sent from 12 of the 13 states, but not from Rhode Island.
Congress called for the convention, pressured by several states, to deal with the problems the country was facing due to the Articles of Confederation. The states then sent delegates to the convention in Philadelphia for the purpose of creating a better constitution for the country.
