The Electoral College is comprised of 538 electors who cast one vote per person for president and vice president. Arizona has 11 electors to reflect the number of senators and representatives it has in the U.S. Congress. Electors pledge to support the candidate they represent and may not vote otherwise, meaning Arizona s electors voted for Biden and could not vote for Trump.

By Bob Christie article
PHOENIX - When Arizona’s 11 presidential electors meet Monday to formally vote for Democrat Joe Biden, they’ll be the focus of intense scrutiny during what is normally an afterthought in America’s elections.
This year’s electors are a diverse group of Democrats chosen by party officials to formalize their rare victory in the state.
Representing the party are three tribal leaders, a female Latina mayor, three labor union leaders, an openly gay Latino county supervisor, a Black member of the state utility regulation commission, the president of a county NAACP chapter and the state party chair, Felecia Rotellini.
