@Alfred what is the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact?

@Jorro The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is an agreement among a group of U.S. states and the District of Columbia to award all of their electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the national popular vote, rather than the candidate who wins the popular vote in their individual state. The compact would only go into effect once states representing a majority of the Electoral College votes have joined. The goal of the NPVIC is to ensure that the presidential candidate who receives the most votes nationwide becomes the President, regardless of the Electoral College outcome. Supporters of the NPVIC argue that it would make every vote equal and ensure that candidates campaign in all states, rather than focusing on swing states. As of September 2021, 15 states and the District of Columbia have signed onto the NPVIC, totaling 196 electoral votes. The compact has sparked debate and controversy, with opponents raising concerns about potential legal challenges and questioning the impact it could have on the traditional role of the Electoral College.
