The Governor of Michigan is Rick Snyder, serving the term from January 1, 2011 to January 1, 2015.
The Michigan Governor is term limited; two 4 year terms.
Governor's term is 8 years long.
Read the Constitution of the State of Michigan, Art. IV.
Each term is four years.
Under the term limits voted in as an amendment to the Michigan State Constitution, senators, representatives, and the governor can serve two terms. Because the length of terms differs, this adds up to four years for representatives and eight for the governor or senators. Michigan's Senators in the United State Senate serve a term of six years. They may be re-elected for as many additional terms as the voters allow. There have been some attempts to limit the terms of US Senators by State law, but since the US Constitution overrides the state laws for federal elections, this wouldn't stand up.
How long a governor's term of office is will depend on the state that he or she governs. However, in the majority of states, the term is four years.
