Democratic trifectas in five states heighten push for National Popular Vote compact

Democrats clinched state government trifectas in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nevada, a development that has put Electoral College reform back in the spotlight ahead of the 2028 presidential election, The Hill reported Nov. 10, 2026.

The Hill reported that activists are pressing to pass the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. If enacted, the compact would require participating states to pledge all their electoral votes to the national popular vote winner.

The Hill’s account did not detail whether or when bills to join the compact have been formally introduced or approved in the named states.
