The political parties in each state choose slates of potential Electors sometime before the general election. On Election Day, the voters in each state select their state's Electors by casting their ballots for President. The electoral college Electors in most states are selected by state party conventions or by the state party's central committee. In a few states the Electors are selected by primary election or by the party's presidential nominee. Political parties often choose Electors that are state elected officials, state party leaders, or people in the state who have a personal or political affiliation with their party's Presidential candidate. Democratic and Republican electors in Arizona in 2016 were chosen by the chairmen of state political parties.

Electoral votes in the U.S. Electoral College determine the President and Vice President of the United States. The number of electoral votes for each state is equal to the sum of its number of Senators and its number of Representatives in the U.S. House of Representatives. Based on the 2010 Census, there are 9 members of the U.S. House of Representatives from Arizona. Therefore, Arizona has 11 electoral votes.
If there is no majority in the Electoral College, the members of the US House of Representatives elect the President. No one ever appoints a President of the United States.
