AI Summary

  • Amends Arizona election law to allow Arizona to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, an agreement among states to elect the U.S. president based on the national popular vote rather than individual state results.

  • Changes how Arizona's presidential electors cast their votes: electors must vote for the presidential slate that wins the national popular vote (once the compact is effective) instead of the candidate who wins Arizona's state election.

  • Requires Arizona's chief election official to determine the national popular vote total across all member states and designate the winner, then certify the associated presidential electors for that winner.

  • Establishes that the compact takes effect only when states representing a majority of U.S. electoral votes (270 or more) have enacted it, and allows member states to withdraw with certain restrictions.

  • Includes provisions for tie-breaking (using the state's own popular vote), replacing electors who refuse to vote as prescribed, and terminating the agreement if the Electoral College is abolished.
