Group adds 5K more signatures in ballot push to grow Miami Commission, move elections to November

A charter reform group hoping to expand the Miami Commission and reschedule the city’s elections just delivered an additional 5,000 signed petitions to the Clerk’s Office, bringing the total to over 18,000.

The newly submitted petitions move the nonprofit Stronger Miami’s campaign ever closer to the roughly 20,000 valid signatures required under state law for the measures to qualify.

More petition deliveries are planned in the coming weeks, the group said.

Mel Meinhardt, a Board member of the homeowners advocacy group One Grove Alliance and a member of the campaign, said the latest submission reflects growing participation across Miami.
