7. Oddly, Chancery was not created for law students & the casebook industry, but b/c the delegates had a man in mind to serve as chief justice of the highest court, but didn’t want to force out the former occupant. So he became the Chancellor.pic.twitter.com/33t5ypTBBg

8. Sooner rather than later, folks were dissatisfied with the new constitution, mostly because of the lack of a requirement that judges have legal training. So after many failed attempts, another convention was held in 1831.pic.twitter.com/JPwQl9PLPB

9. The new convention—which featured battles between Jacksonians and “anti-Jacksonians” (not an uncontroversial President Andrew was)—was a modest modification of the older version. It reorganized the courts, but didn’t require judges have the hoped-for training.

10. Another thing the 1831 Constitution did is make it very hard to call a new convention. The people voted for one in 1852, but didn’t reach the needed supermajority. But, the legislature went ahead and approved a convention anyway!pic.twitter.com/8q0yyKJjfp

11. This “extra-legal” convention met and banged-out a constitution, but it was rejected by the voters. A fickle lot they are, I tell you.pic.twitter.com/jkMrv5khWJ

12. Years later a solution was found: amend the process for calling a convention. (Why they didn’t think of that before, I’m not sure.) Once that was done a convention was quickly allowed, which then began meeting in December 1896.pic.twitter.com/Bccszgilae

13. This convention brought the constitution up to date, with a longer version talking issues of the age into account, including railroads. It also addressed apportionment, given the population growth in New Castle county (the state has only 3 counties, btw).pic.twitter.com/M0BqExh3O5

14. One failed attempt at the 1897 convention was women’s suffrage. That would have to wait until the 19th Amendment in 1920.
