State Updates

November 2020 - Washington was the 5th State to join this dangerous Agreement.  It is a State whose government has firmly committed to giving away the control of WASHINGTON's 12 Electoral Votes to people who are not related to Washington at all.

The first time that the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact scheme was introduced in Washington, legislators and the Governor jumped at the the chance to join it. Governor Gregoire signed the Bill in April 2009.

Given who the elected officials are in Washington State, we don't expect  the State to drop out of the National Popular Vote scheme in the near term.

 Contact Washington State Legislature Members

Demand that they REPEAL Wshington's participation in the dangerous National Popular Vote Interstate Compact!

​Washington State Republican Party
Resolutin of Opposition to NPVIC and Demand for Repeal 0f RCW 29A.56.300


WHEREAS, The Platform of the Republican National Committee (RNC) includes a declaration of opposition to, and urges the repeal of, all state legislation that attempts to implement the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC); and

WHEREAS, The framers of the Federal Constitution rigorously sought an effective compromise in the selection of the Chief Executive that preserved both the principles of a representative republic form of government AND the inherent Sovereignty of the States; and

WHEREAS, The method of Presidential election as outlined in Article II, Section 1 and the 12th Amendment reflect the time-tested and resilient intent of the framers of the Constitution; and

HEREAS, Any attempt to alter the Electoral College requires the Constitutional process of amendment as outlined in Article V of the Constitution; and

WHEREAS, The NPVIC seeks to bypass the amendment process in order to subvert the Electoral College; and

WHEREAS, The adoption of Chapter 29A.56.300 of the Revised Code of Washington in 2009 entered the state into the NPVIC, thus representing a direct threat to the sovereignty of Washington State;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Washington State Republican Party (WSRP) declares its strong opposition to the NPVIC and/or any scheme designed to alter the constitutional process of the Electoral College outside of the processes outlined under Article V of the Federal Constitution; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the WSRP supports all efforts to immediately repeal Chapter 29A.56.300 of the Revised Code of Washington; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the WSRP urges each county to consider the adoption of this resolution.
