I heard, I can’t remember from here or someplace else, that an alternate will take his spot

If you are talking about Art Sisneros then you are correct as I understand it.

AUSTIN – A Republican member of the Electoral College from Texas has resigned his position
after writing last weekend that he could not vote for President-elect Donald Trump.

Art Sisneros of Dayton, who explained his decision in a blog post, acknowledged that Trump
will be president in January, but said casting his vote for the New York businessman “would bring
dishonor to God.” Resigning would allow the remaining electors to fill his vacancy with
someone who will vote for the president-elect during Texas electors’ Dec. 19 meeting, Sisneros added.

“I do not see how Donald Trump is biblically qualified to serve in the office of the Presidency,”
he wrote. “Of the hundreds of angry messages that I have received, not one has made a convincing
case from scripture otherwise. If Trump is not qualified and my role, both morally and historically,
as an elected official is to vote my conscience, then I cannot and will not vote for Donald Trump
for President.”
