I am aware of that election, but that election occurred before certain state laws required electors to vote for their pledged candidate and the 20th Amendment. Some electorally significant states-MI,CA,and FL-stipulate that an elector must vote for their pledged candidate. Is this the case if a candidate is dead or disqualified? I am uncertain. This would lead to Biden becoming the next president.
