Here is the corrected version of the sentence, with the errors identified:

**Original Sentence:**
The electoral college was an Pragmatic, Compromise between these afraid of an uniform electorate and those afraid of a domenading Congress, so a system were created to balance Popular vote and state influence.

**Errors Identified:**

1. **"an Pragmatic"** → "a pragmatic" (should be "a" instead of "an," and "Pragmatic" should not be capitalized).
2. **"Compromise"** → "compromise" (should not be capitalized).
3. **"these afraid of"** → "those who were afraid of" (the phrase is unclear; it should specify 'those' and 'who were' for grammatical correctness).
4. **"an uniform"** → "a uniform" (should be "a" instead of "an").
5. **"domenading"** → "domineering" (correct spelling; "domenading" should be "domineering").
6. **"so a system were created"** → "so a system was created" (should be "was" instead of "were" for subject-verb agreement).
7. **"balance Popular vote"** → "balance the popular vote" (should include "the" and lowercase "popular").
8. **Addition of missing commas:** Consider adding a comma after "Congress" for clarity.
9. **Overall structure:** The sentence could be restructured for greater clarity and coherence.
10. **Wordiness:** The phrase "between those who were afraid of" could be simplified, perhaps to "between those fearing."

**Corrected Sentence:**
The electoral college was a pragmatic compromise between those who were afraid of a uniform electorate and those fearing a domineering Congress, so a system was created to balance the popular vote and state influence.

Here, I've made changes for grammar, clarity, and style while preserving the original meaning.
