A Pasco County judge threw a wrench into the countys remaining School Board race on Monday, declaring that the well-funded candidate endorsed by Gov. Ron DeSantis did not qualify for the ballot.
State law requires school board candidates to reside in the district they are seeking to represent by the end of the qualifying period, which was noon on June 17.
Circuit Judge Susan Barthle found that Alvaro Al Hernandez, a Humana executive backed by much of the county Republican establishment, did not meet that mandate, according to lawyers who attended a hearing in her courtroom Monday.
Neither Hernandez nor his attorney could be reached for comment.
