Humphrey '68 - Bush '92 counties

[SingingAnalyst]

I believe TX was the only state to vote Humphrey in '68 and Bush in '92. COnsidering the 3 largest counties in MI, Macomb voted Humphrey '68 - Bush '92, Oakland came within 0.5% of doing so, and even Wayne County was slightly less D and more R in '92 compare to '68. It seems SE Mich is an anomaly. Any other counties make that switch?
