The Federalists were more organized which made possible for them to shape the US Constitution in 1787. Anti-Federalists did not gain much support because they were not that organized all over 13 states.

Also, the Federalists had strong leaders, such as Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, James Madison, and George Washington.
