I pulled changes, and merged conflicts by accident.

The result: I have a bunch of local files with >>>>>>>>>>>>>HEAD>>>>>>>>, etc.

What is the easiest way to delete my local ‘master’ branch and ‘re-clone’ the origin ‘master’ branch back to my repository?

    BE WARNED: This will cancel all modifications you have made that are not on origin branch

    git reset --hard origin/master
    

    git reset reverts your working copy, --hard option is to tell that you really want to forget everything. This has the exactly same effect than re-cloning from the origin repository.
