President Obama nominates Darrin Gayles another Gay Black Judge to Federal Bench

After the foolishness with William Thomas, President Obama will nominate Darrin Gayles to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida.

Darrin has a rich history in Florida. In 2011, he served as a circuit court judge for Florida's 11th Judicial Circuit and later, served as a county judge for the same circuit.

Darrin was also endorsed by the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund for his bid for re-election in 2012.

Metro Weekly also noted these accomplishments from Darrin:

Gayles served as an assistant district counsel at the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service from 1997 to 1998 and as an assistant state attorney in the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office from 1993 to 1997. He is a graduate of George Washington University Law School and Howard University.

I wish him the best of luck
