We speak of them as the "Federalists" and "Anti-federalists".
But this is a little bit misleading, because the SECOND name lumps together a wide variety of people, who opposed the Constitution for DIFFERENT reasons. It includes those who opposed just one or two particular features of the Constitution -- such as those who insisted it must have (add) a Bill of Rights (and which features varied), and those who opposed the whole concept of a new Constitution with ANY strengthening of the central/federal government.

isn't one million/30,000 better than one million/640,000? basically like one 0.5 is larger than one quarter? evaluate the textual content fabric of the const: "The style of Representatives shall no longer exceed one for each thirty Thousand, yet each and each state shall have a minimum of one representative." So, one million rep according to 15,000 could violate this because it could be 2 for each thirty Thousand. in addition, the "yet" alerts an exception in that small states are allowed to have a representative even nevertheless this could consequence in a ratio of better than one million/30,000. So it form of feels no longer likely that there could be any such group.
