(where his slot's term actually ended in December 2020), then he'll be out and someone else can be nominated for that slot. There is also a GOP member's slot that is up in December 2021 and a replacement for that one can happen as well.

And since one of Biden's 3 recently confirmed governors was listed as an "Independent" (who actually supports Democrats) vs being a registered "Democrat" or "Republican, and since the governance statute stipulates no more than 5 of the 9 governors be "from the same (registered) party", Biden could nominate 2 more Democrats for those upcoming vacancies to have a 5 (D) + 1 (I) + 3 (R) board of governors.

As a note, the (I) is Amber McReynolds. More on her - https://www.ozy.com/news-and-politics/amber-mcreynolds-vote-at-home-election/318427/ and https://time.com/5901694/amber-mcreynolds-vote-by-mail-2020-election/
