Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most of the opposition to ratification was concentrated in rural areas, where people felt that the new Constitution would favor large landowners and urban elites. In larger cities, there was more support for ratification, especially among merchants and other businesspeople who saw the potential benefits of a stronger central government. The opponents were not well-organized from the beginning, and their efforts to defeat ratification were often disorganized and ineffective. Most newspapers were in fact in favor of ratification, and opponents did not try to get a quick "no" vote. The opposition was not concentrated in small states, as there were both supporters and opponents of ratification among small and large states alike.
