Why isn't a rep from Rhode Island on the list of signers for the US Constitution Ref httpwwwsenategovcivicsconstitution itemconstitutionhtm?
A representative from Rhode Island did not sign the U.S. Constitution because the state was initially opposed to the document. Rhode Island was concerned about the potential loss of sovereignty and the lack of explicit protections for individual rights. As a result, the state chose not to send delegates to the Constitutional Convention and was the last to ratify the Constitution in 1790.

Signers for Rhode Island in 1790?
rhode island was signed may 29,1790. what i need to know is who signed it. It really wasn't "signed" so much as it was ratified by a ratifying convention, where people voted on it, and to find the people who were there would be particularly hard, because the ratification in Rhode Island was nowhere near as nasty or as widely covered as the conventions in, say, Virginia or New York (that was nasty). However Rhode Island did not send anyone to the Constitutional Convention, so there are no signers there.
