Dispute over Shelby, Spencer County line in Kentucky on the ballot this November

PENCER COUNTY, Ky. (WDRB) -- A dispute over county boundary lines between Shelby and Spencer counties will be a ballot issue this November.

Because of an audit into voter registration in Shelby County, the State Board of Elections said several homes, more than 200 individual voters, were registered in the wrong county. The state's GIS online mapping tool, revealed homes that were believed to be in Spencer County, were actually part of Shelby County.

For five years, Mina Schelling has called what she thought was Spencer County home.

"We chose to buy land and buy our homes in Spencer County," said Schelling. "Now I'm being told it's actually Shelby County."
