Besides Ottawa County's ongoing Republican streak, several other counties would also not vote Democratic again for a long time after this election: Delta County (1932), Iron County (1934), St. Clair County (1936), Ogemaw County (1970), Missaukee County (1978), and Osceola County (1986). Winans was the first Democrat to be elected governor without carrying St. Joseph County.
