constitutional convention
connecticut is known as the "constitution state". the origin of this nickname is uncertain, but it likely comes from connecticut's pivotal role in the federal constitutional convention of 1787, during which roger sherman and oliver ellsworth helped to orchestrate what became known as the connecticut compromise, or the great compromise. this plan combined the virginia plan and the new jersey plan to form a bicameral legislature, a form copied by almost every state constitution since the adoption of the federal constitution. variations of the bicameral legislature had been proposed by virginia and new jersey, but connecticut's plan was the one that was in effect until the early 20th century, when senators ceased to be selected by their state legislatures and were instead directly elected. otherwise, it is still the design of congress.
