C, City of Shreveport, Bossier Parish, in the November 3, 2020 election, whose 30-P campaign finance disclosure report was filed 10 days late.
Facts:
Pammela Lattier requests a waiver and states the following:

The late filing was a complete oversight on her part. She said that in prior years her husband served as her campaign manager and report preparer, however they have since divorced and he no longer assists her. She said that she had everything prepared early, but failed to submit it timely. She states that she promptly filed the report when she received the delinquency notice. She was unopposed in the election.
