- List_of_Governors_of_Michigan abstract "The governor of Michigan is the chief executive of the U.S. state of Michigan, and serves as the commander-in-chief of the state's militia forces. The governor has a duty to enforce state laws; the power to either approve or veto appropriation bills passed by the Michigan Legislature; the power to convene the legislature; and the power to grant pardons, except in cases of impeachment. He or she is also empowered to reorganize the executive branch of the state government.Michigan was originally part of French and British holdings, and administered by their colonial governors. After becoming part of the United States, various areas in what is now Michigan were part of the Northwest Territory, Indiana Territory and Illinois Territory, and administered by territorial governors. In 1805, the Michigan Territory was created, and five men served as territorial governors, until Michigan was granted statehood in 1837. Forty-eight individuals have held the position of state governor. The first female governor, Jennifer Granholm, was elected in 2003.After Michigan gained statehood, governors held the office for a two year term, until the 1963 Michigan Constitution changed the term to four years. The number of times an individual could hold the office was unlimited until a 1992 constitutional amendment imposed a lifetime term limit of two four-year governorships. The longest serving governor in Michigan's history was William Milliken, who was promoted from lieutenant governor after Governor George W. Romney resigned, then was elected to three further successive terms. As of June 2013, four former governors were alive, the oldest being William Milliken (born 1922). The others are James Blanchard (born 1942), John Engler (born 1948) and Jennifer Granholm (born 1959). The most recent governor to die was George W. Romney on July 26, 1995. Rick Snyder is the incumbent governor, having taken office on January 1, 2011. He won election in the 2010 gubernatorial election, defeating Lansing mayor Virg Bernero.".
