This group is the electoral college.
The Electoral College is not a college in the traditional sense. Once every four years when the electors meet in the state capitals to cast their votes for president, reporters call that "The Electoral College." Saying "The Electoral College met," is simply a shorthand way of saying, "The Electors met in their respective State Capitals to cast their votes." The second statement is what really happened. The Electoral College does not really exist.
The public "votes for President" in November, but they are actually electing members to the electoral college in that election. The electoral college casts the votes for President (and Vice President) in December.
The public "votes for president" in November, but they are actually electing members to the electoral college at that time. (The electoral college elects the President and Vice President in December.)
The Electoral college vote will be the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December, when the electors of the Electoral College meet in their state capitals and cast their votes. The delay is because in times past, it took awhile to count all of the votes from outlying areas of the country.
The electoral college
You're close, but it's not in February. The new President is inaugurated in January, after the election in November, so the electoral college has to meet earlier than February. But they do elect a President. The general election elects members of the electoral college.
The Electoral College does not convene as one body but instead the electors meet in the state capitols of their respective states; most of these meetings of electors will happen in most of the states on December 15.
