The last time a State didn't use a vote was in the election of 1876 when Colorado was admitted as a State too late as to prepare for a vote in the Presidential election. There's no reason to think the result would've been different in that case and it's doubtful we'll see a State ever have the legislature elect the Electors save in a similar situation.

On the other hand, if the result was different, then Tilden would have won the whole election.
