You are correct. Officially Constitution Day is Sept. 17th. But the final state necessary to ratify was New Hampshire which did it on June 21, 1788.

“You are correct.”

You are correct. It was on this date 224 years ago today. The state of New Hampshire ratified and was the needed 9th state to make the Constitution official.

Sorry to question your facts!
