The Washington, D.C., Board of Elections has rescinded a $16,000 fine levied against socialist Janeese Lewis George days before she won the mayoral Democratic primary against former Councilman Kenyan McDuffie.
The district’s elections board heard a hearing de novo request from Lewis George on Wednesday, as she asked the board to reconsider the Office of Campaign Finance’s June ruling against her, which concluded she had improperly coordinated with labor unions and an independent expenditure committee supporting her mayoral candidacy. The elections board vacated that ruling from the campaign finance office during the Wednesday meeting.
