I am not sure. I am also wondering the same question. I have a booklet in front of me with these choices: July 4, 1776 ; March 4, 1789 ; January 24, 1791 ; May 1, 1803. Doubt this helped, but atleast it narrowed your year down.
The Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides the procedure by which the President and Vice President are elected. It replaced Article 2, Section 1, Clause 3, which provided the original procedure by which the Electoral College functioned. Problems with this procedure were demonstrated in the elections of 1796 and 1800. The Twelfth Amendment was proposed by the Congress on December 9, 1803 and was ratified by the requisite number of state legislatures on June 15, 1804
The Constitution itself was ratified in 1787. The Bill of Rights, the 1st ten amendments to the Constitution, was added to the Constitution in 1789.
The two steps in the second method of amending the Constitution are: proposal by Congress and ratification by conventions.
The two steps are: 1. The house and senate pass the amendment with a 2/3 vote. 2. The amendment is then ratified by 3/4 of the states (currently would require 38).
