Former West Palm Beach City Commissioner Christina Lambert held a formal kickoff for her mayoral bid, with more than 100 people listed on the event’s host committee. Her campaign headquarters at 7925 S. Dixie Highway opens Saturday, when Lambert will be on site from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Residents can meet her and learn how to volunteer.
Lambert entered the race nearly two years ago. She is one of four candidates seeking to succeed term-limited Mayor Keith James, who has endorsed her. Her campaign said it will publish a policy agenda in the coming weeks, built from October roundtables on 14 topics, including housing costs, traffic, parking, public safety and City Hall oversight.
Lambert said residents have raised concerns about the cost of living, traffic and how new development could affect their neighborhoods. Residents can submit more suggestions through an online policy portal until Nov. 20.
Her backers include the city’s police and firefighters unions, the Service Employees International Union and the Chamber of Commerce of the Palm Beaches. Through Sept. 30, her city campaign account reported more than $252,000 in raised funds. By Oct. 29, her political committee, Friends of Christina Lambert, held more than $1 million.
Other candidates include Palm Beach County Commissioner Gregg Weiss, construction superintendent Aaron Moreno and former neighborhood activist Cory Kennedy. Candidates must qualify by noon Nov. 17 for the technically nonpartisan March 9, 2027, election.
