If enacted, this bill would amend Title 16, Chapter 4, Article 1 of the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding a new section, 16-410.01, which would formally affirm the importance of the electoral college in presidential elections. The new language would specify that the legislature recognizes the electoral college as a crucial mechanism for selecting the President of the United States, citing reasons such as its establishment by the founding fathers, its role in ensuring nationwide participation, and its provision of certainty in election outcomes.

The bill does not propose any deletions from current law but introduces several affirmations regarding the electoral college, emphasizing its historical significance and functional benefits. This addition aims to reinforce the state's position on the electoral college without altering existing statutes related to election conduct.
