Yes, Pennsylvania colonists had a say in the governance of their colony. The colony was founded by William Penn as a haven for religious freedom and democratic principles, leading to the establishment of a representative assembly. This assembly allowed colonists to participate in decision-making and legislation, providing them with a significant degree of self-governance. However, ultimate authority still rested with Penn as the proprietor.

The colony of Delaware split off from Pennsylvania. Geographically, it had been shut off from the rest of the colony. Because of this, future-Delaware's inhabitants had very little say in Pennsylvania's representative government.
