Arizona SB1141 amends the election of presidential electors, addressing vacancies and replacements.

Arizona SB1141 amends section 16-212 of the Arizona Revised Statutes to revise the process for electing presidential electors. It specifies that if a presidential elector is absent when the electors meet, their office is deemed vacant. The chairperson of the political party represented by the absent elector appoints a replacement. The bill also details the process for casting electoral college votes, including scenarios where a winning candidate dies or withdraws before the electors meet.
