Respuesta :

D. They wanted all slaves to count towards a states population because since they have a lot of slaves, they are allowed to raise tax and earn more money

Answer:

D.) They wanted all slaves counted towards the states population.

Explanation:

The more the slaves, the more political power the South would have, even if it meant paying higher taxes. The delegates were willing to do the trade-off, and argued for counting slaves as part of the population.
