Trump Tweeted two graphs today from the NYT data.

The Wisconsin one was already discussed, and is generally agreed to be the Milwaukee City mail-in returns.
The 149,772 number seems wrong in the Michigan example. But the 96% figure is correct based on the data. This comes from:
Now again, all we have in the JSON is a vote total, and two % numbers for Biden and Trump. The actual individual votes have to be calculated from this, and are not exact. But I get 147226 votes, with Biden getting 135290 of them, or 96%
Spreadsheet (attached)
It seems again the cause is likely city votes all coming in at once.
The per-precinct reports seem to be missing there though. But still
Stright Party: 191152 to 7085
Individual: 233908 to 12654
Totals: 425060 to 19739 (444799)
Pcts: 96% to 4% - exactly the same as the "suspicious" spike.
