RE:
Request that the Board waive the $360 campaign finance late fee assessed against Donnie Mack Johnson, a candidate for East Carroll Parish Assessor, in the October 22, 2011 election, whose EDE-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 6 days late.
Facts:
In connection with his request for a waiver of the $360 late fee assessed for the late filing of an EDE-P campaign finance report, Donnie Mack Johnson, states that the required EDE-P campaign finance disclosure report was not apart of his packet, therefore the late fee should be waived. Mr. Johnson is a district level candidate. This is his fifth campaign. He was an unsuccessful candidate.
