I suspect that you can see the miles of gray area in there that I can see that could apply to her activities. There are a lot of words out there that - unless they've been shut down by case law - are prime candidates for, at minimum, attempted application.
What I think we both agree about it that:
1) It's unethical to run a VRD that matches polling with registering voters; frankly, it's unethical to run a VRD as anything other than a non-partisan activity (I was absolutely willing to tell people I worked for the Obama campaign when I was out registering and they asked "who are you working for," because I wanted to be honest, and I would also make clear that in this function, however, I was engaged in something non-partisan) and
2) You probably don't want to blur the lines as closely as this young woman was doing, and expose yourself to an area of the law that may be undefined, and correspondingly, apt to produce results you might not expect.
