B is the correct answer.

The primary objection of the Anti-Federalists towards the Constitution was that it made the central government too strong.

This was a worry for the anti-Federalists as they saw America as being formed as a rejection over the central monarchy in the UK and did not want to replicate any aspects of the British government in the new American country.
