Arizona GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward says her state’s Republican electors, who on Dec. 14 cast their votes for President Donald Trump, believe they “represent the legally cast votes in our state.”
Republican electors in seven states, including Arizona, cast alternative Electoral College votes for Trump, which critics argue are merely symbolic and have no force of law. Meanwhile, the same seven states, which have officially certified the election for Joe Biden, formally appointed Democrat electors to cast their votes for the former vice president, setting up a possible showdown when Congress meets on Jan. 6 to review the potentially competing sets of electoral votes.
