Washington (CNN) Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes said Thursday the state's Democratic primary results remain unchanged following a complete re-canvassing of the totals, requested by Bernie Sanders presidential campaign.

"A statewide recanvass of the votes was conducted in the May 17 Democratic presidential primary election and the results did not change the outcome of the election," said a statement from Grimes' office. "The results remain unchanged from the totals certified by county boards of elections to the secretary of state last week, as required by law."

Sanders requested the re-canvass after rival Hillary Clinton narrowly won the Bluegrass State earlier this month.

He signed the request Tuesday morning, according to spokesman Michael Briggs, which read: "Pursuant to KY statute (KRS 117.305) I hereby request a full and complete re-canvass of every one of the voting machines and absentee ballots in all precincts and all 120 counties involving the primary."

Clinton's lead was by 1,923 votes, according to the Grimes' office -- with 46.8% of the vote to Sanders' 46.3%. Clinton won 28 delegates to Sanders' 27.
