The Elect are the Puritans that have gone through "conversion". In conversion, the Puritan will have an experience with God in which he tells them that they are going to heaven. Once a Puritan has gone through conversion they are part of the Elect (the people who are going to heaven). If you do not experience conversion then you are damned to Hell.
The elect are simple those whom God chose from eternity to be His own peculiar people. The reprobate (or in another words, damned) are those God destined for hell and destruction. There are many who do not hold on to this doctrine of election and reprobation. Salvation is of the Lord. "What shall we say then, is there any unrighteousness with God? God forbid..." (taken from Romans 9). Our good works cannot contribute to our salvation for they are but filthy rags. God is sovereign and He alone chooses His elect who will have eternal life.

No. Christianity is a "singling" religion. It separates the saved from the damned; elect from reprobate. Christianity does not attempt to join everyone together. A good example of this is the principle of the antithesis. Christians are called to be in the world, but not of the world.
