The next question would be whether or not slaves were considered people or citizens of the United States. The 3/5s act came into play, saying that for every 5 slaves in the state, 3 would be counted as a person.

It gave the Southern states some benefit from slaves for the purpose of Representation in Congress (and apportionment of revenue), while avoiding handing them an overwhelming edge.
