At the time, they were simply called delegates; now they are collectively called the Framers of the Constitution.
Each state (except Rhode Island) sent delegates to the 1787 Philadelphia Convention to represent the interests of the State. The original purpose of the convention was to revise the Articles of Confederation; no one, including the delegates themselves, was aware the meeting would result in an entirely new plan for government, the US Constitution.
The Philadelphia Convention later became known as the Constitutional Convention because of this accomplishment, and the delegates who actively worked to create a new government are now known as the Framers of the Constitution.
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.
Forty-nine states have applied for an Article V Convention (what is often called a "Constitutional Convention"), submitting more 700 applications. Article V does not permit the calling of a "constitutional convention" only a "convention for proposing amendments."
As often as Constitutional Amendments are proposed.
Popular sovereignty
it had an impact so that the all of the colonies agreed that they should have two senators and that they have an equal amount of reprsentatives. It was made mostly to make sure equality was for all.
O don't know
The representatives of the original 13 states sent to Philadelphia for the U.S. Constitutional Convention (originally "Philadelphia Convention") are called delegates. The resolution calling for delegates to the Convention was issued by the Continental Congress on February 21, 1787: "... it is expedient that on the second Monday in May next a Convention of delegates who shall have been appointed by the several States be held at Philladelphia for the sole and express purpose of revising the Articles of Confederation...."Although a total of 70 delegates were appointed by the States, 55 ended up attending (none came from Rhode Island), and but 39 actually signed the final document.
"The Connecticut Copromise, often referred to as the Great Compromise or Sherman's Compromise, took place during the Constitutional Convention in 1787."
The Constitution of the United States was written by a group of delegates during the Constitutional Convention in 1787. James Madison is often credited as the primary author due to his extensive notes on the proceedings.

Most often a primary is used to directly decide a candidate at the state and local level. To decide a party's candidate for President, states may use a variety of means -- chiefly primaries and caucuses -- to choose delegates to a national convention. These delegates, often pledged to a particular candidate, will choose the party's national candidate. (A state party may also hold its own convention of local delegates to choose the party's delegates to the national convention.)Study island answer: Polls
State legislatures, rather than convention delegates elected by the people, often ratify amendments.
According to the National Constitution Center, www.constitutioncenter.org, There is a story, often told, that upon exiting the Constitutional Convention Benjamin Franklin was approached by a group of citizens asking what sort of government the delegates had created. His answer was: "A republic, if you can keep it."
The terms "Founding Fathers" or "Founders" are often used to collectively describe the men who wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. To refer only to the signers of the Declaration of Independence, the term "Continental Congress" is generally used. "Constitutional Convention delegates" would describe only the people who assembled to draft the Constitution.
James Madison is often referred to as the "Father of the Constitution" because he played a central role in drafting the document, notably through his work at the Constitutional Convention and in advocating for its ratification. Madison's ideas and contributions significantly shaped the final form of the Constitution, earning him this title.
Never fast enough!! Seriously, delegates run whenever there is going to be an election.
