In a Princeton Legal Journal article, Alexandra Orbuch argues the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact—which by May 2021 had 15 states and Washington, D.C., agreeing to award their electoral votes to the national popular vote winner—violates the Constitution's Compact Clause. She contends the compact encroaches on non-member states, blocks at-will withdrawal, circumvents the amendment process, and enables tyranny of the majority by leaving the electoral college in name only.
