The Pennsylvania Constitution of 1776 (ratified September 28, 1776)
has been described as the most democratic in America and was drafted by Robert
Whitehill, Timothy Matlack, Dr. Thomas Young, George Bryan, James Cannon, and Benjamin
Franklin. The Constitution provides for a unicameral legislature, a Supreme
Executive Council, a President elected by an Assembly and Council together, and
a Council of Censors. The constitution was later copied by revolutionaries of
Vermont as a basis for their constitution. This site is useful as it gives us
an insight into the debate over constitutional government that would culminate
