Title: Michigan election returns, 1978
Description: Included in this study are the aggregate election returns for each of Michigan's more than 6,700 precincts and Absentee Voter Counting Boards for the 1978 general election. These data are essentially similar to precinct-level data obtained for previous elections and were also supplied by the Elections Division of the Michigan Department of State. For 1978, however, two separate data files have been created, one for the August primary election and one for the November general election. Offices contested in 1978 include governor, secretary of state, attorney general, United States representative, United States senator, state senator and representative, superintendent of the state board of education, Supreme Court Justice, and Regents of the three major state universities, as well as eleven state-wide proposals (referenda) voted upon in the November 6, 1978, general election.
