Wyandotte Constitution
The present Constitution of the State of Kansas was originally known as the ''Wyandotte Constitution'' to distinguish it from three proposed constitutions that preceded it. The ''Wyandotte Constitution'' was drawn up at Wyandotte (now part of Kansas City) in July 1859, and was the fourth constitution voted on by the people of Kansas Territory, as the battle between proslavery and antislavery forces during the Bleeding Kansas era spread to the debate over the terms of the new state's charter.
==Adoption==
The ''Wyandotte Constitution'' was approved in a referendum by a vote of 10,421 to 5,530 on October 4, 1859.〔(''Wyandotte Constitution'' Approved )〕 In April, 1860, the United States House of Representatives voted 134 to 73 to admit Kansas under the ''Wyandotte Constitution''; however, there was resistance in the United States Senate. As 11 slave states seceded from the Union, their senators left their seats and on January 21, 1861, the Senate passed the Kansas bill.〔
The admission of Kansas as a free state became effective January 29, 1861.〔
