Florida › Miami Dade County › County Referendum 4, Charter Amendment Revisions Due to Reestablishment of Elected County Constitutional Offices

County Referendum 4, Charter Amendment Revisions Due to Reestablishment of Elected County Constitutional Offices is a ballot question for Miami Dade County on the November 3, 2026 ballot. Shall the Home Rule Charter be amended to make certain changes that (1) address the reestablishment of the elected County Constitutional Offices of Sheriff, Tax Collector, Property Appraiser, and Supervisor of Elections, (2) clarify the respective duties of Clerk and County with respect to finance and budget, and (3) require County employees to take leave of absence when running for an elected constitutional office?

A yes vote means: The Charter would be updated to reflect that Sheriff, Tax Collector, Property Appraiser, and Supervisor of Elections are once again independently elected constitutional offices, clarify Clerk-vs-County finance/budget duties, and require County employees to take leave of absence while running for one of those offices.
A no vote means: The Charter would not be updated with these housekeeping changes tied to the reestablished elected constitutional offices.
