Final answer:

Rhode Island was the only state not to send delegates to the Constitutional Convention.

Step-by-step explanation:

The only state that did not send delegates to the Constitutional Convention was Rhode Island. While all thirteen states were invited to send delegates to the meeting in Philadelphia, Rhode Island chose not to participate in the proceedings. It was the last state to ratify the new Constitution, doing so on May 29, 1790.
