New Jersey delegates opposed the Virginia Plan primarily because it favored larger states by proposing representation based on population, which would diminish the influence of smaller states like New Jersey. They were concerned that this would lead to a lack of equal representation in Congress. In response, they proposed the New Jersey Plan, which called for equal representation for each state, regardless of size, to ensure that smaller states had a fair voice in the legislative process.

What was the big I word that delegates didnt want to use in 1774?
The big "I" word that delegates were reluctant to use in 1774 was "independence." During the First Continental Congress, many delegates were focused on addressing grievances with Britain and seeking redress rather than outright separation. The idea of independence was seen as radical and potentially jeopardized the unity of the colonies. It wasn't until the later years, particularly with the Declaration of Independence in 1776, that the call for independence gained widespread support.
