not sallowed to be sick

Its true I filed a late report last election time, as I was sick as a dog with the flu- fever, chills, nausea. All of this was verified by the City Clerk, but they fined me anyway. I guess in big campaigns you have somebody to do it for you. I had only me at the time. I guess you are not allowed to be sick while you are campaigning for office. I have other witnesses too, to verify my condition at the time. It was due on a Friday and I filed it on the following Monday, still sick, but a little better than the previous Friday. I filed an appeal with Tallahassee but it wasnt allowed, without an explanation by them. Dr. Mel P. Johnson
