The correct answer is:
**Larger states would get more votes than smaller states.**
The Virginia Plan proposed a system of representation in the national legislature based on the population of each state, which meant that larger states would have more representatives and, therefore, more voting power compared to smaller states. This was more favorable to larger states compared to the New Jersey Plan, which proposed equal representation for each state regardless of size.
