A recanvass of the votes in Kentucky's Democratic presidential primary started at 9 a.m. Thursday. At 1:00 p.m., Secretary of State Allison Lundergan Grimes said the recanvass resulted in no change in the election outcome.
Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign requested the recanvass after losing to Hillary Clinton by less than half of 1 percent of the vote.
"He's in this until every last vote is counted and he's fighting for every last delegate," said Sanders' spokesman Michael Briggs.
Fayette County election officials finished the recanvass in Lexington in 20 minutes and they didn't find anything wrong.
While there weren't any surprises in Fayette County, election officials tell WKYT the recanvass could reveal inaccurate race results in other counties.
"Some counties aren't fully electronic so it's possible some changes could occur," said Fayette County Clerk Don Blevins.

Over 100 counties have been recanvass so far, and Bernie has gained a total of 13 votes. Doesn’t look like the serious charges of voter fraud at Clinton, DNC, and Grimes are holding up. Hopefully, this wasn’t a waste of taxpayers’ money.
