As far as I know, only two things:
As Macomb and Oakland Counties go, so goes the state of Michigan in Presidential races.
In the 70s and 80s when Republicans dominated, they won these counties. In the 90s and 00s when Republicans lost, they either lost Macomb or Oakland or both (Oakland always).
Nationally, it seems to be a solid, by small margins Democrat state at the National level, whereas it seems to be a solid, by small margins, Republican state on the local level (exception Governor).
People from Michigan can surely enlighten me here.
