RE:
Request that the Board waive the $480 late fee assessed against Shawn Granger, a candidate for Coroner of Vernon Parish in the October 22, 2011 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 8 days late.
Facts:
In connection with his request for a waiver of the $480 late fee assessed for the late filing of a 30-P campaign finance report, Shawn Granger states that he received the wrong packet information from the Vernon Parish Clerk of Court. The packet he received was for an "any other level" office candidate. He further states that he was unopposed and had no activity in connection with his campaign. Mr. Granger is a district level candidate. This is his third election.
