"I've been pretty outspoken about Arizona's election system, and bragged about it quite a bit, including in the Oval Office," Ducey tweeted in part, praising the state's election laws and practices as secure and empowering to voters.

Ducey pointed to the statute requiring Arizona's secretary of state to canvass the election results in front of the governor and attorney general on the fourth Monday after the general election.

President-elect Joe Biden beat Trump by 10,457 votes in Arizona, the secretary of state's office said.

"The canvass of the election triggers a 5-day window for any elector to bring a credible challenge to the election results in court.
