A judge accused of making racist and sexist remarks won re-election in Duval County after a recount following last week's primary.
Judge Mark Hulsey was reassigned after allegations of inappropriate behavior toward staff and derogatory comments about women and African-Americans.
He defeated his opposer Gerald L. Wilkerson by .04 percent.
Hulsey denied the accusations of inappropriate conduct three weeks after a state investigative panel accused him of making racist and sexist remarks.
An attorney for Circuit Judge Mark Hulsey filed a six-page response in the Florida Supreme Court rejecting allegations that Hulsey said blacks should "get back on a ship and go back to Africa" and that he referred to women staff attorneys as being "like cheerleaders who talk during the national anthem."
A group of pastors demanded Hulsey step down after the allegations went public.
