"Dear Connecticut voter: Your state is telling you that you don’t need to bother to vote! How screwed up is that?"

It's not quite that extreme, because the Connecticut vote is part of the national popular vote.

But the law basically nullifies the Electoral College by making it secondary to the popular vote, thereby violating the Constitution, which - throughout - moderates the popular vote in various ways, as with the idea that each state - regardless of population - has two and only two senators, and through the electoral college, which "condenses" the popular vote of each state into a group of electors, which - as determined by each state - may or may not allocate the popular vote of that state proportionately, but may have a winner-take-all formula.

Allowing the will of the voters of any state to be trumped by the national popular vote is a basic violation of our constitutional structure, and I think that even most liberals on the court will agree.

“Allowing the will of the voters of any state to be trumped by the national popular vote is a basic violation of our constitutional structure, and I think that even most liberals on the court will agree.”

There is no such thing as the will of the voters when it comes to choosing presidential electors.

That power was delegated to state legislatures under Art II, Sec 1.
