LWV Michigan has an op-ed about NPV in Bridge Magazine

The National Popular Vote(NPV) guarantees that the electoral college and the presidency will be won by the candidate who wins the most popular votes in all 50 states and DC. When enacted, NPV will apply the concept of “one person, one vote” to our presidential elections, making every voter politically relevant in every presidential election for the first time. 

The Michigan House of Representatives is considering Michigan joining the National Popular Vote Compact.  The League of Women Voters supports House Bill 4156, which would add Michigan’s 15 electoral votes to a growing number of states supporting National Popular Vote.
