The popular vote compact doesn’t require an amendment.


There is still an electoral college.


Enough of the states decide to cast their electoral college votes for the popular vote winner, then the popular vote decides the presidency.


The constitution says each state shall decide their electors, this is them deciding.

You need to stay off Social Media for your Civics lessons. Those of us that are older took Civics in the 6th grade and we know how the Constitution is Amended. This proves even so called "educated" people know nothing and will be Useful Idiots for the Left. The Democrat party has figured this out. But they will keep saying it and the Idiots will keep holding out hope.

You need to take another civics class if you think it takes a constitutional amendment for a state to decide how to cast their electors. Or use a simple google search to see what the popular vote compact is before running your mouth. Ignorance is a choice you seem to be making.

"Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress”

The popular vote compact is state legislatures deciding to cast their electors for the popular vote winner. Exactly as the constitution gives them the power.

You might want to talk to Elana Kagan who penned the SCOTUS unanimous Decision regarding this. Google is not your friend.
Chiafalo v. Washington

You really woke up today and chose ignorance.

The popular vote compact hasn’t been challenged in court because it hasn’t been used. That ruling is on censuring states electors for becoming faithless electors.

Electors in NPV compact wouldn’t be faithless, they would be casting votes for the candidate their state legislature sent them there to support. When the NPV is challenged in court that case will actually be used to support it because of the strong stance it takes for the state legislature to bind EC electors.

You are going to want to go back to the drawing board and figure out what the NPV Compact is, and perhaps take that civics class again and see what the constitution says about presidential elections.
