House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi isn't saying yet whether she endorses Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders for the Democratic presidential nominee, and has hinted she won't say who she supports before her home state's primary on Tuesday.

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has accepted Kentucky's primary election results, moving front-runner Hillary Clinton one delegate closer to securing the nomination. State officials reviewed election totals from electronic voting machines and absentee ballots on Tuesday at the request of Sanders' campaign after he finished 1,911 votes behind Clinton in the state's May 17 primary, or less than one half of 1 percent of the vote.

That's 56.5% to 43.5% -- which in a general election would be characterized as a landslide.
