Request that the Board waive the $700 late fee assessed against Dale Bayard, a candidate for BESE, District 7, in the October 22, 2011 election, whose 90-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 7 days late. |
|
In connection with his request for a waiver of the $700 late fee assessed for the late filing of a 90-P campaign finance report, Dale Bayard states that his friend assisted him with completing the reporting forms in connection with the October 22, 2011 election. He further states that while receiving assistance in another matter, his friend believed reporting forms would be mailed. However, after contact with the Campaign Finance division, he found out he misunderstood. At that time, a report was immediately filed. Mr. Bayard is a major level candidate. This is his seventh election. He was an unsuccessful candidate.
