Here’s Why It Makes Perfect Sense For Bernie Sanders To Request A Recanvass Of Kentucky

In a move designed to fire up his supporters and show that he is still competing for every delegate, Sen. Bernie Sanders has requested a recanvassing of the results from the Kentucky primary.
The AP reported:
Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign requested a recanvass in Kentucky’s presidential primary Tuesday, where he trails Hillary Clinton by less than one-half of 1 percent of the vote.
The Sanders campaign said it has asked the Kentucky secretary of state to have election officials review electronic voting machines and absentee ballots from last week’s primary in each of the state’s 120 counties.
Sanders signed a letter Tuesday morning requesting a full and complete check and recanvass of the election results in Kentucky.
It is not a coincidence that the campaign of Sen. Sanders requested a recanvass of Kentucky less than a day after Hillary Clinton turned down a Fox News offer to hold a Democratic debate in California. Sanders is showing his supporters that he is fighting for every last delegate. Sanders also could win Kentucky if the review of the voting totals went his way.
