A group that wants to give Baltimore County voters the chance to expand the County Council from seven to eleven members, dropped off petitions Monday at the county board of elections.

If VOTE4MORE! collects enough valid signatures, there will be dueling questions on the November ballot on how big to make the County Council.

It delivered two duffel bags filled with petitions that Linda Dorsey-Walker, the group’s chair, said contain 10,275 signatures.

At least 10,000 valid signatures are needed to put a question on the ballot. Dorsey-Walker concedes some of those signatures will be tossed out.
