A hopeful for Florida’s House of Representatives who claimed she “personally removed” 77 bullets from Pulse nightclub shooting victims must provide proof of her medical background — or drop out of the race, Democratic party officials are demanding.

Elizabeth McCarthy, 50, was introduced in late March as a physician by US Rep. Darren Soto during a gun safety town hall in Orlando, where she was joined by a Pulse survivor and Osceola County Sheriff Russ Gibson, video shows.

“It’s an honor to be in the medical field,” McCarthy said. “I love what I do. I love helping people and giving better options to people — that’s the best way I can say it.”

On the night of the Pulse shooting, which killed 49 people and wounded 53 others in June 2016, McCarthy claimed she was working at Orlando Health, the parent company of Orlando Regional Medical Center.

“It’s probably one of the hardest things of my career to work through,” McCarthy continued. “I personally removed 77 bullets from 32 victims … It was like an assembly line.”

But officials at the Florida Department of Health and Orlando Health confirmed to FloridaPolitics.com earlier this month that they have no record of McCarthy being a doctor or any physician who worked at the hospital by that name.

The Seminole County Democratic Party is now calling on McCarthy to drop out of the race for House District 28 unless she can provide proof of her background.

“We are suspending our support until she provides transcripts, diplomas, licenses, letters from employers and proof of her involvement in the Pulse tragedy,” chairwoman Brittany Nethers told The Post. “We were pretty shocked about the potential of this being a whole fabrication.”

Nethers said party officials first reached out McCarthy on Friday, but she declined to back up her claims.

“It’s especially troubling to our local and national LGBTQ communities that she would use a tragedy like this for her own personal gain,” Nethers said of McCarthy, who is openly gay. “I can’t fathom why someone would make this up. It seems as if this is all a fabrication. It’s occurred to us that she might need help.”

Democratic officials in the county will now take a look at its vetting process, Nethers said.

McCarthy could not be reached for comment Friday. After initially telling FloridaPolitics.com she would be “pulling her campaign” upon being questioned about her background on June 15, she promised to continue her run for office two days later. The website also reported it could not verify claims that she attended the University of Florida and Florida State University.
