RE:
Request that the Board waive the $1,000.00 and $80.00 campaign finance late fees ($1,080.00 total) assessed against Elaine G. Davis, an unsuccessful candidate for Member of School Board, District 1, City of Baker, EBR Parish, in the November 8, 2022 election, whose 30-P and 10-P campaign finance disclosure reports were filed 2 and 330 days late, respectively.
Facts:
Leroy Davis, on behalf of Elaine G. Davis, requests a waiver and states the following: the 10-P was faxed on 10/30/2022, and the 30-P was faxed on 10/11/2022. Mr. Davis mentions that he has proof of the original reports being submitted on said dates. He believes there has been some confusion with the original and amended reports, and the late fees should be waived.
