Trump took a 2024 campaign ad, put “Paid for by the U.S. Government” at the end, and ran it on taxpayers’ dime. More than $1.7 million from DHS went into ads during football and prime time. The White House calls that a PSA🙄 We aren’t fooled. #PayToPlayPresident

All it could take for the national popular vote compact to reach a majority of electoral votes is for Democrats to flip six legislative chambers across Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
Electoral College cartogram showing which states are in the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact and which ones could join in time for it to activate by 2028. Each state is sized and labeled according to its number of electoral votes. The states are spaced out enough to accommodate the changes in size but retain their general shapes and relative positions on the map.

Current members are in solid orange, potential members are in light green, and nonmembers that are unlikely to join are in medium gray. Members have 222 electoral votes, potential members have 68, and the unlikely states have 248. The compact would only activate once states with at least 270 electoral votes have joined.

The seven potential members and their electoral vote are Alaska (3), Arizona (11), Michigan (15), Nevada (6), New Hampshire (4), Pennsylvania (19), and Wisconsin (10). Democrats would need to gain the governor's office and/or legislative chambers to win unified power in these states, as detailed in the spreadsheet linked in this post.
