A Florida school board candidate who lost his race in a county south of Jacksonville will get a seat on the board anyway, after Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis tapped him to fill a vacancy.

Derek Barrs will take an open seat on the Flagler County School Board in northeast Florida, succeeding a member who resigned in September, allowing DeSantis to appoint a replacement rather than the seat going on the ballot for voters to decide.

    Very soon, this fuckbag will be ineligible for reelection, and will very likely just disappear.

    We Floridians have to put up with him for two more years, but I guarantee you, change is coming.
