Wayne State Professor Marjorie Sarbaugh-Thompson and a team of researchers have been recording the impressions of lawmakers for the last seven years regarding term limits in Michigan. In a book and reports they have charted responses and developed algorithms that measure the real effects of term limits against the promises of those who campaigned for Proposal B in 1992. At a recent gathering of the Michigan Political History Society, Thompson declared that term limits \"have largely failed to fulfill the promises their proponents made.\"
