The courts decided to keep the slaves
they created the 3/5 compromise
Slaves should be counted when counting a state’s population to determine representation in congress
Northern states objected because enslaved people were legally considered property. So, some argued that as property, Slaves should be counted for taxation but not representations.
Johnson believes that slaves should be counted the same as other people for determining a state's representation in the national legislative.
The Northern states argued that slaves should not count towards the population for representation purposes because they viewed enslaved individuals as property rather than citizens with rights. They believed that including slaves in the population count would unfairly inflate the political power of Southern states, which relied on slavery. This stance was part of the larger debate during the Constitutional Convention, which ultimately led to the Three-Fifths Compromise, allowing each slave to be counted as three-fifths of a person for representation and taxation purposes.
The debate between the North and the South over counting slave populations primarily revolved around representation and taxation. Southern states wanted slaves counted as part of their population to increase their representation in Congress, while Northern states opposed this, arguing that slaves were not citizens and should not be counted for representation. This culminated in the Three-Fifths Compromise, where each slave was counted as three-fifths of a person for both representation and taxation purposes, reflecting the South's desire for political power while acknowledging the moral and political complexities of slavery.

Suck a dick
There was a debate in Congress about whether the Act should be passed or not. (NHD, huh? xD This is my topic)
he thought it was fair for the states without slaves
The southern position in the debate that led to the Three-Fifths Compromise was primarily motivated by the desire to increase their political power in Congress. Southern states argued that enslaved individuals should be counted as part of the population for representation purposes, despite them not having any voting rights. This would allow slaveholding states to secure more representatives in the House, thereby enhancing their influence in federal government. The compromise ultimately established that each enslaved person would be counted as three-fifths of a person for both representation and taxation.
William Blount believed that slaves should be counted as part of the population for the purpose of determining representation in Congress and for the allocation of taxes. He supported the Three-Fifths Compromise, where slaves were counted as three-fifths of a person for these purposes.
