Federalists wanted a stronger national government whereas Anti-Federalists preferred that decision making powers should be with state and local government.  

Further Explanation:

Anti-Federalists felt that a strong government will be ruled just by wealthy people and they will steal power from common and poor class of people. They also had objection with the rights and anti-democratic elements which stated that President will be elected indirectly, there will be no age limit in respect to presidential term and also had issues with appointment of federal judges for lifetime.<u> Anti-Federalists were in favour of weak central government</u> because they equated a strong government with British Empire. They felt that the state governments were giving up too much of their powers to federal government. There another fear in respect to strong central government was that the lack of guarantees the then constitution gave in respect to individual rights. <u>The state which was strongly opposing a strong central government in United States was “North Carolina”</u>. This state comprised majorly of small scale workers and farmers who were self-reliant and independent and along with this, they were uneducated. They gave little attention as to what is going in other states or neighbouring countries.  The issue between Federalists and Anti-Federalists continued even when North Carolina joined the union. After some time, Anti-Federalists started calling themselves as ‘Republicans’ and under this name they won Presidential elections in year 1800.

he Federalists also favored a LOOSE construction of the Constitution, believing that the Federal Government should possess all powers not specifically denied to it.

The Anti-Federalists wanted to limit the Federal government STRICTLY to the powers which the Constitution specifically delegated to it. In other words, they wanted to shackle the powers of the government and keep a tight control on it.

In the 2000 presidential election Arizona had 8 electoral votes. What best explains the change shown on this map
Liula [17]

You didn't show a map, but I can explain how electoral college votes are determined.  Arizona's number of electoral votes has been growing because its state population has been growing at a rate faster than other states, and some states have seen shrinking of their population.

Here's what the National Archives says concerning how Electoral College delegates are assigned: Electoral votes are allocated among the states based on the Census. Every state is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its members in the U. S. House of Representatives.

So the number of electoral votes each state gets (of the 538 total electoral votes) is recalculated every ten years, based on the most recent US Census data.

In the 2000 presidential election, Arizona had 8 electoral votes, as it had also in the 1992 and 1996 elections.  That number was based on the 1990 Census figures for population.  In the elections previous to that, in 1984 and 1988, Arizona had 7 electoral votes, based on population numbers from the 1980 Census.  In the elections of 2004 and 2008, Arizona had 10 electoral votes based on 2000 Census data.  In 2012 and 2016, Arizona had 11 electoral votes based on the 2010 Census.  So you can see that Arizona's relative share of the national population has continued to grow and affect its share of Electoral College votes.
