Kentucky recanvass confirms Clinton as winner!


“The unofficial winner of Kentucky’s Democratic presidential primary remains Hillary Clinton,” Grimes said at a press conference on Thursday. “The recanvass vote totals which were submitted to my office today will become the official vote totals. The Kentucky Board of Elections will certify on May 31st.”

On election night, Grimes said, the unofficial vote count found “there was a 1924 [vote] difference between Hillary Clinton and Sen. Sanders.”

The recanvass results found that Clinton still was ahead of Sanders, this time by 1911 votes, Grimes said.

“The 13-vote difference is a result of two counties’ absentee vote totals being reported, as well as provisional ballots in two counties being reported,” Grimes said.

not a recount, so it was paid by the taxpayers of the state. Jerk.
