Miami Beach Commission candidate Mark Samuelian is on a roll.
After getting the coveted endorsement of longtime city 
activists Frank and Marian DelVecchio, Samuelian announced Saturday that he also had the support of former Commissioner and preservation hero Nancy Liebman.
The campaign sent an email Saturday from Liebman, who served from 1993 to 2001, is a founder of the Miami Design Preservation League, president of Miami Beach United and was also onetime chair of the Urban Environmental League.
In other words, the woman pulls votes.
“I want to tell you about my friend and Belle Isle neighbor Mark Samuelian.
I’ve worked very closely with Mark and have admired the active role he has taken in our community. Mark serves with me on the executive board of Miami Beach United, fighting for residents and helping to make a difference. He is also an active leader with the Alton Road Business Association and The Pets’ Trust.
He’s a community advocate that we can rely on.
With his engineering degree from Georgia Tech, Mark is well suited to tackle the many complex -and often technical- challenges Miami Beach faces. As a graduate of the Wharton School and a tenured business consultant, Mark has the executive experience we need to get results!
I’m supporting Mark for Group 6 Commissioner and I hope you will too.
Her bold. Or theirs. Not mine.
The DelVecchios, who ardently supported Levine in 2013 but have not this year, said
“In Group VI we believe Mark Samuelian’s academic credentials and business experience in engineering, systems management, finance and business consulting, will be invaluable to the City Commission. He has our vote.”
Both emails, sent on the week that absentee ballots land in mailboxes, ends with a link to the candidate’s website and a call for volunteers for his grassroots campaign.
It also might end any last diminishing hopes that John Elizabeth Aleman, who is the mayor’s hand-picked candidate, had of winning.
