GAINESVILLE, Fla. – It was an upset in Alachua County, as Florida’s only current female sheriff was ousted in Tuesday’s primary election. Darnell has been sheriff in Alachua County since 2006 —14 years. “To be that sheriff who everyone will see that sheriff and see sheriff, not color or gender,” he told WCJB-TV. “I thought it was about time to have more black representation in Alachua County,” said Rich Heiss. The Alachua County Democratic Party also could not be reached.

Alachua County Sheriff Sadie Darnell is being challenged by Clovis Watson Jr. in the August Democratic primary. There is no Republican in the race but a write-in candidate in November keeps the primary closed to only party voters. A write-in candidate will keep this primary race also closed. Two city council races will also be on the Democratic ballot, both facing Republican candidates that will be on the November ballot.
