Miami-Dade County is holding a countywide special election on November 3, 2026, to vote on proposed technical amendments to the Home Rule Charter.

The Charter Review Task Force recommended these changes, with a vote of ten in favor and zero against. The resolution was introduced on 6/26/2026 and is currently in committee, with an agenda date of 9/1/2026. The proposed ballot question is: "Shall the Home Rule Charter be amended to make certain technical changes, including updating certain listed County locations to current name, allowing for additional methods of public notice and participation when otherwise allowed by state law, and ensuring consistent stylistic conventions for numbering, gender, capitalization, and grammar?"
