Request that the Board waive the $600 and $240 campaign finance late fee assessed against Lea Reid Williams, a candidate for Parish President, West Feliciana Parish, in the October 19, 2013 election, whose 30-P and 10-P campaign finance disclosure reports were filed 11 and 4 days late. |

In connection with her request that the Board waive the late fee assessed for the late filing of the report, Lea Reid Williams states that she read the instructions as to indicate that provided there were no contributors to her campaign and that she had spent less than $5,000 that there was no need to submit the campaign finance disclosure reports. She subsequently discovered that all expenditures must be reported regardless of the $5,000 limitations as per the instructions.
