In Washtenaw MI, McGovern not only did better than Carter (fighting against a favorite son) but won a county that Nixon won in '68. What was with that place?

That's where Ann Arbor is. Ford was the first Michigan grad to run for President and was a star on their football team to boot.

Yes but that doesn't explain how McGovern flipped the county from Nixon '68.
