Does "appointed" mean "selected as a POTENTIAL Elector" (e.g. Hillary Clinton was selected recently to be a potential Elector) or does it mean "FINAL"? Is there case law to clarify this? I see on the National Archives website (archived it lol) it states:
The winning Presidential candidate's slate of potential electors are appointed as the State's electors

"Winning" would logically mean that "appointed" refers to the "FINAL" Electors based on Election Day totals, NOT the "POTENTIAL".
