new york and
virginia add to
growing support
for bill of rights
a. the constitution was able to go into effect once 9 of the 13 states
voted for ratification.
b. states ratified the constitution because they wanted to influence
the process of writing the bill of rights.
c. mid - atlantic states were the strongest supporters of the
constitution.
d. most states eventually agreed on the compromise of ratification
with a bill of rights.

Explanation:

The headline indicates New York and Virginia added support for the Bill of Rights, which was a key compromise to secure state ratification of the Constitution. This aligns with the idea that most states accepted ratification tied to adding a Bill of Rights. Options A, B, and C are not directly supported: A refers to the 9-state ratification rule but not the Bill of Rights; B incorrectly claims states ratified to influence writing the Bill of Rights (many ratified with the promise of amendments); C makes an unsubstantiated claim about Mid-Atlantic states being the strongest supporters.

Answer:

D. Most states eventually agreed on the compromise of ratification with a bill of rights.
