HUNTERSVILLE, NC – Conservative Republican, former Mecklenburg County Commissioner, and candidate for U.S. Congress in the Thirteenth Congressional District, Karen Bentley, announced raising $125,000 in just five weeks.  

Bentley enjoyed a successful career working as a senior leader for leading healthcare corporations like Merck & Co., Novant Health, and Cardinal Innovations Healthcare.  Bentley is now the Founder and President of Bentley Consulting Group, LLC where she consults and advises executives and business owners on strategies to equip their organizations with high-potential leaders and opportunities to succeed in times of rapid change.

Notable Republican donors to the Bentley campaign include David Benham, John Fennebresque, Michael and Wendy Kahn, Vinay Patel, Jim Pendergraph, Felix Sabates, and Art Van Wingerden.

“I am humbled and thankful for the early support for my campaign.  I promise to continue to work tirelessly to be your voice, and not the voice of other politicians and political organizations that do not call our community home.”  

“I will build on the relationships I’ve been fortunate to cultivate by raising my family and serving and working in our community for more than twenty years,” Bentley said. 

Bentley has been married to her husband, Eric, for 32 years.  They have raised two daughters, are proud in-laws to two wonderful young men and blessed with two grandchildren.  Bentley and her family have called Huntersville home for more than two decades.
