The Virginia Plan proposed that a state should be represented according to their "Quotas of contribution, or to the number of free inhabitant" during the Constitutional Convention of 1787. Large states would have more influence or votes than smaller states.

Explanation:

On May 29, 1787, Edmund Randolph proposed to the Constitutional Convention a program devised beforehand by the delegates of Virginia. This program, the Virginia Plan or Randolph Plan, was developed in the waiting time for the quorum at the convention building on the experience gained by delegates in designing the Virginia Constitution. James Madison had done an important preparatory work in the preceding months, publishing in particular a memorandum in which he pointed out defects constituting confederation. He played a leading role in the development of the Virginia Plan and he wrote the essence of the proposal that Randolph presented in fifteen points.

One of the main features of the Virginia Plan, and one of the most controversial issues during the assembly, lay in the design of the Legislature. The plan provided for a two-chamber system in which both chambers should be chosen in proportion to the number of inhabitants. The population of each state would choose the lower house directly, which in turn would elect the members of the upper house. This proposal was criticized in particular by the less populous states, which feared a loss of power within the central government. As a counter-proposal, they submitted the New Jersey Plan.
