They just published a story about that in the times today. tl;dr is basically it's up to the States to send whatever elector they want, and then it's up to congress to certify the electors. There problem is that only a handful of states have laws that spell out who the electors should vote for of the candidate is dead or otherwise unable to serve. But other states have clear laws that the electors have to vote for the candidate who won the popular vote on the state, with no exceptions. So essentially nobody has any clue how to proceed.
