A North Carolina voter file search for "Kelly Lynn Vanhorn" in Mecklenburg County returns a voter registered since 2004 with a Democratic party affiliation and a 1977 birth year. Because that party affiliation conflicts with the Republican party listed on this candidate's official primary filing, ballotproject.org could not confirm the voter record and this candidate are the same person, and those unverified personal details have been omitted here pending confirmation.
