An argument for the New Jersey Plan was that it aimed to preserve the sovereignty of smaller states by ensuring equal representation in Congress, regardless of population size. This plan proposed a unicameral legislature where each state would have one vote, countering the Virginia Plan's population-based representation, which could marginalize less populous states. Proponents believed this approach would maintain a balance of power among states and protect the interests of all, particularly those with smaller populations.
