The Maine state Senate on Wednesday sent a bill adding the state to the National Popular Interstate Vote Compact to Gov Janey Mills’s desk, putting another four electoral votes to the compact’s total, now at 209, Daily Kos reports while claiming that another 82 are “possible” by 2028.
It’s not, but like we keep saying, don’t bet against it happening by 2040 as Pennsylvania (19), Nevada (6), Virginia (13), Arizona (11), and Wisconsin (10) may have Dem trifectas at varying points over the next decade. Daily Kos’s report says Michigan’s NPVIC bill advanced out of committee but remains stalled pending the outcome of two special state House elections next month.
