The issue of how many representatives in the house was debated heavily in the Constitutional Conventions. Eventually they decided that the population the whites plus three-fifths of their slaves. This shows there was already tension about the way the government would be run and the distribution of power between the states.

Although northern and southern states agreed to the Three-Fifths Compromise, they still disagreed over the issue of slavery.
