Request that the Board waive three (3) $1,000 campaign finance late fees assessed against Robert R. "Bob" Womack, a candidate for Member of School Board, District 11, St. Tammany Parish, in the November 6, 2018 election, whose 30-P, 10-P and 10-G campaign finance disclosure reports were filed 127, 153 and 123 days late, respectively. |
|
Robert R. Womack states that he lost his wife several years back and it accelerated a serious stomach disease that he has called gastroparesis, severe degenerative joint disease, and he suffers from panic attacks. He has had multiple procedures done and has a complex treatment plan which requires constant adjustment. He states that he was too sick to complete the reports. He did find someone to help him complete the reports so he will not have any late filings in the future.
