Without looking specifically at New York most states have parties submit list of electors prior to the election whose names to not appear on the election ballot and instead the party’s presidential candidate appears on the ballot. You are voting for the slate of electors when you cast a ballot.
It is unlikely that Bill would have been an elector if Trump had won.

From my understanding that's not how it works but I could be wrong.

They had an entire day and couldn't get that baby pile of votes processed? Did they just hit the bong and eat pizza instead?

Probably not at this point. Sounds like it's gonna drag well into tomorrow.
It's almost 1 am in Philly. Did they stop for the night?

Clayton County just posted another 270 or so votes to its website. Biden gains by another 230 votes.
It's just going really slowly.

Yes it is,
There are two slates of electors that you vote for that are chosen by the parties prior to the elections by various methods.

No, they're nominated by the party (or the candidate) in one way or another. You can look at the list of electors from past elections. Here's 2012 and 2016:

It's not a coincidence that every state that voted for Obama in 2012 but Trump in 2016 (Michigan/Ohio/Pennsylvania, etc.) switched from Democrats to Republicans as their electors.

Only Maine and Nebraska can split the electoral vote as they run on a District System.

Seems like an easy way to avoid a lot of this garbage is just to stay off Twitter.
