Request that the board waive the $600 campaign finance late fee assessed against Troy Abshire, a candidate for East Feliciana Parish Sheriff in the October 24, 2015 election, whose 30-P report was filed 15 days late. |
|
In connection with his request that the Board waive the late fee assessed for the late filing of the report, Troy Abshire states that he was unaware that the 30-P report was due and that it had to be electronically filed because this is his first election. He states that he missed those pages when he initially read over the packet he received at qualifying.
