Oh of course Phk, like I said the university played a role. It doesn't come close to explaining the large trend to the dems in the county at large and the bay area.
Ford carried Washtenaw County, Michigan. Maybe it was due to my voting for Ford in 1976 in that county. 
Ford actually carried the undergraduate dorm precincts.
I think that Ford was an alumni that played football for the Wolverines was maybe slightly a larger reason that Torie's vote:) Carter was that liberal nor Ford that conservative either.
