At some point, perhaps after the June Assembly of the States, the Uniparty will notice this building groundswell of resistance and disgust.

Congress can't decertify electoral votes. Once the governor signs the certification and sends it to the Archivist of the U.S., that's it.
States have near plenary power to appoint presidential electors as they see fit.

No compact is involved. It's called the National Popular Vote Compact.
Compact: A covenant or contract made between two or more persons or parties; a mutual agreement or understanding; a mutual and settled appointment between two or more, to do or to forbear something. OED.
To: Jacquerie
If this passed Constitutional muster, then the states could have their electoral votes be decided by the popular votes of those states that have that are part of the group.
Clearly unconstitutional
