Without change, a plan for a national popular vote could undermine the presidency Andy Schatz, opinion contributor © Getty Images A Vote sign
The movement to elect the president by national popular vote has now focused on the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. States totaling at least 270 electoral votes would agree to cast their electoral votes for the winner of the popular vote nationally, regardless of who won in their own states. 196 Electoral College votes have already been committed and state legislation is pending to well exceed the 270 votes required to elect a president (and render the compact effective).
Although national popular vote is a good idea, NPVIC would be harmful unless amended.
Change the Electoral College for good
