There are 26 states that went for Obama in 2012. You would need 10 of them to agree to an Article V convention and 14 of them to ratify any amendments coming out of it. Good luck with that.
From the article:
“...
The way forward is for the states, in their resolution language, to simply quote the part of Article V, which compels Congress to call the amendments convention:
The Congress ... on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments[.]
A minimalist resolution basically quoting Article V provides no purchase for legal challenge and is effectively saying to Congress, “The Constitution says we can demand it...so we’re demanding it. Period.” The bonus of taking this path of least resistance is that there are already 18 states with valid resolutions of this type — and those resolutions never expire!
...”
it many DEM states:
it is easier for conservatives to win the state house than to elect members of congress.
One involves MONEY, the other is more grassroots. And the move for Article V now gives impetus to doing that ... elect conservatives to the state house. A motivation which has not always been there.
The link within the source claims 18 states have bare bones article V resolutions active (count had been 21, but 3 rescinded since 2000). Oddly 10 of the active states were 2012 Obama states!!! So, unless those states start rescinding, red state action alone could push the convention over the top. I'm not saying it's likely, just that it is mathematically possible presuming the source's information is correct. Getting anything ratified would obviously be harder. However several states are more red at the state legislature level than at the presidential electoral level so it's not quite as hard as at first glance. You might be able to at least get close enough to scare some rinos and rats into faking right for awhile.
