Answer 1

B. They believed the federal government would have too much power over the states.

Step-by-step explanation:

Federalism is the central government, so by being an anti-federalist they would be against it rather than for it. Anti-federalists feared the central government would have too much power and they would fall back into the situation with Britain. Therefor the federalists changed the constitution so they would agree.
