What happens if there’s a tie in a state in a Presidential election?

It would vary in each state & D.C., but I'd presume that at least some of them already have explicit contingency plans (e.g., drawing of lots or a similar random method like flipping a coin, direct appointment of electors by the state legislature, etc.) for such an occurrence; to find them out, one would need to go look through each state's & D.C.'s election laws. Of course, these would only come into play after the inevitable mountain of lawsuits & mandated recounts that exclude any & all ballots that are eligible to be disqualified have concluded that the final, certified results were indeed a tie.
