| Request that the Board waive a $800 campaign finance late fee assessed against Jeffrey Warren, a candidate for Member of School Board, District 2, DeSoto Parish, in the November 6, 2018 election, whose 10-G campaign finance disclosure report was filed 20 days late. |

Jeffrey Warren states that this was his first election. He admits that he felt overwhelmed with the process. He knows that he made mistakes and didn't file his paperwork properly but as a complete novice to the system, he really didn't know what to do. He asked a friend to help him, and was under the impression that the paperwork was filed properly on his behalf, but clearly that did not happen. He takes full responsibility for this matter, but is asking for some grace.
