This is a fatal flaw of forgetting that your vote affects state politics which, arguably, is more impactful on your day to day matters than federal issues.

Also if you push your state more to the left, the greater odds of the NPVIC being triggered which automatically enables a national popular vote.

Which would get promptly shut down by our corrupt as fuck SCOTUS.

Nope. Electoral delegation is completely in control of the states. That why some can partition them (think ME and NE).
