Like Grand Rapids and Lansing, Kalamazoo was another growing city in which Biden got over 70% of the vote. %'s ranged from 69% in precinct 10 in northeast K'zoo to 95% next door in the far north of The Zoo. 
Election Twitter, how can I make a custom color ramp in QGIS in which 0 is white and 100% is the darkest hue of the color? I'm trying to create an empty scale of like 5% increments, but have the color ramp up evenly but deeper into the color ramp.
Battle Creek - Cereal City - has been one of Trump's better cities as the Kellogg company town has economically stagnanted over the past two decades. Biden got 82% in Precinct 4, Trump 56% in Precinct 23 which are adjacent to one another.
BTW, the city' shape is a result of Kellogg putting pressure on Battle Creek and Battle Creek Twp to merge, which happened in 1982. Prior to this the southern border was along Territorial Road, which is also the s. border of the two aforemention precincts.
Jackson, the Rose City and one of a few cities which can consider itself the birthplace of the GOP, is a small and blue-collar city in south-central MI. It's unusual in that it swung slightly GOP while the county as a whole swung slightly Democratic last cycle.
Home to MI's first prison, it became an automotive center before its population began to decline every decade since the 1950's. Today, it's largest employer is one of the state's largest public utilities: Consumers Energy, formerly Consumers Power.
Grand Rapids - Furniture City - went from 62/30 Clinton to 69.5/28 Biden zooming to the left. The dark red areas in south-central are predominantly African American. Ward 3, Precinct 66 went 91% Biden. Ward 1, Precinct 21 went 50% Trump, the only Trump precinct.
