What is the political makeup of the four MI counties in the Central time zone?

They've been reporting the eastern MI results...but won't have the western results for another fifteen minutes or so. Are they likely to go in a different direction than the results we are seeing so far?

I doubt there are many Democrats there.

Bernie's ahead of HRC in the early Eastern MI returns. Which time zone is the "Upper Peninsula" in?

Most of the UP is in the Eastern time zone, but a few western counties are in the Central time zone.

The UP does not have a high population. They aren't going to swing anything unless it's really, really close.
