Bush takes the Gore Counties of Clare, Manistee, Alpena, Ogemaw, Iosco, Roscommon, Calhoun, Iron(UP Dem stronghold), and Macomb.
Bush only loses Alger(UP) from 2000.
Bush improves his numbers in most dem leaning areas(did the same in Saginaw/Bay, lost ground in Washtenaw and Detroit).
He improves on most GOP areas outside of Kent County, especially up North, Livingston County(exceeded goal by 10,000 votes, and in Ottawa).
Detroit has more votes now - while dropping population(Another 30,000 drop from 2000). The percentages were almost exactly the same too. Riiiiiiiight.
