Then they would need 2/3rds of the states to agree with them.

The Constitution itself would stay intact. This only applies to legislation and regulations forced on us by the Federal government.

That’s not how I interpreted it. It’s a state by state basis isn’t it? If california wants to render something null and void in california, they can do so with a 2/3rds majority vote of their own state legislature.

So who of us is correct?

Now I’m worried you are partly correct. How do they tally the votes? IF they count every state congressman’s vote individually across the country and strike down something for EVERY state with a 2/3rds majority, that won’t be fair. some states have more state congressvermin than others.
