Well, no. The entire premise is that the states pass laws giving their EC votes to the winner of the popular vote. It’s not just a pinky promise lol. Those laws would have to be overturned by their state legislatures in advance.
The only part that makes it a pact is that none of the state laws go into effect until enough other states pass their laws.

right, and there are already faithless elector laws. but the ones i’m familiar with, they punish casting the wrong vote. they don’t correct it.
