In addition, in a state such as PA, where there is Pubbie legislature, and Dem Gov. does the Gov. also have to agree with that slate?

No. In 1877 the Supreme Court ruled that state legislatures have a plenary, nonjusticiable power to appoint electors.

Thank you for the information. So just to be clear, someone posted that for an example the Texas Governor has the final word in electoral disputes-that law is not constitutional? Appreciate your input in all these discussions.
