Question: In what city did North Carolina ratify the U.S. Constitution?
Answer: North Carolina held a ratification convention in Fayetteville Nov. 13-23, 1789, to debate for the second time about whether to accept the U.S. Constitution. During this second convention, the state agreed to ratify it. The first convention occurred in Hillsborough in 1788, where the General Assembly decided to neither ratify nor reject the Constitution due to the exclusion of a Bill of Rights.
