Bevin campaign formally asks for a recanvass in Kentucky

The campaign for Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin officially asked the commonwealth to recanvass the votes from Tuesday’s election, which will occur next week.

“With last night’s election too close to call and multiple reports of voting irregularities, Governor Matt Bevin’s campaign is formally requesting an official recanvass,” the campaign said in a statement.
“The people of Kentucky deserve a fair and honest election. With reports of irregularities, we are exercising the right to ensure that every lawful vote was counted,” said Davis Paine, Bevin’s campaign manager.
Bevin first told reporters Tuesday night that his campaign had seen irregularities in voting, but he has not presented any evidence to support those claims.
