Citing unspecified irregularities, Governor Matt Bevin
formally requested an official recanvass Wednesday of the results in Tuesday’s
general election.

Democrat Andy Beshear has a 5,189 vote lead over Bevin after
100 percent of precincts reported their results earlier this week.

The recanvass will take place the morning of Thursday,
November 14th when county board of elections will convene. Upon completion of
the recanvass, the local boards will file their final reports with the
secretary of state.
