Unconstitutional and will be struck down in court. States can’t set conditions in federal elections.
I believe it is up to the state to determine its electoral vote distribution. What is in question to me is that can a state disenfranchise its own voters by awarding its own electoral votes based on votes from other states or the total popular vote...

I think this compact will be challenged at the state level. I believe only a couple actually put the question to the voters (who stupidly tossed away their political power)

1. There is no right to vote on the federal level. States are not required to even hold elections in the Electoral College.
2. There would not be a de facto disenfranchisement because their citizens would still be voting in the election to determine the Presidency.
