Question

Which statement would an anti-federalist most likely agree with?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is B. An anti-federalist would most likely agree with saying that most political power should rest with the states.

Explanation:

The anti-federalists were a political faction of the United States that opposed the ratification of the Constitution, considering that it removed large amounts of power and rights from the states, to grant them to the federal government. In this way, they considered that with the creation of a one-person executive power, the states would lose powers, and the federal government would become a tyranny similar to that exercised by King George prior to the American Revolution.

Therefore, it is logical that these people would have agreed that most of the political power should remain in the hands of the states.
