Electoral College changes could make all the difference in the presidential election. Red states have added two votes and blue states lost two. That might put Trump in the White House.
The 2020 presidential election was one of the closest and most controversial in American history, and preliminary polling suggests that the 2024 rematch between former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden will likely be just as hotly contested. However, there are two major differences between 2020 and 2024 that could prove to be the deciding factors in the race. The first is that 2024 features a relatively popular third-party candidate, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
At present, the 16 states in the agreement control a combined total of 205 Electoral College votes. Under the national popular vote model, the presidential candidate with the most votes would win, regardless of whether the losing candidate is more popular in the vast majority of states. That means that the national popular vote would overrule the will of the voters in those states.
