    Each of 13 states called Special Conventions

    People from each state elected delegates to the conventions

    Delegates choose whether to approve the Constitution for their state

    At least 9 of 13 states had to approve for Constitution to be law of land

    Explanation:

    During the ratification of the constitution the founding fathers had to persuade 9 out of the 13 states to approve the new form of government. The states objections were mostly that they wanted a written document stating their rights. Rhode Island was one of the most antifederalists states.
