I honestly don't think he's winning Michigan. It's going to be decided by three counties - Macomb (affluent Detroit suburb), Kent (Grand Rapids, very religious but Whitmer is from there), and Saginaw (Saginaw, Bay City, Midland) which flipped to Trump. Here is a link to the top 15 counties voting in '16. I don't really see any other counties flipping, Not counting the rogue UP blue county, no chance the blue counties flip. They are strong union counties or big colleges.

If you can get a feel for those three, theres your bet. Kent is least likely to flip, Saginaw probably does, especially if the economy stays in the dumps.
