Democrat Jim Glenn beat Republican D.J. Johnson for a seat in the Kentucky state House by just one vote.

Kentucky’s State Board of Elections says Glenn won 6,319 to 6,318, according to the Washington Examiner.

"I've had 25 people tell me they are the one person that voted for me," said Glenn, who spent five terms in the legislature before losing in 2016. "Whether it was one vote or one thousand, it's a win. A win's a win no matter how you count it."

CBS News reported the Kentucky State Board of Elections will meet next week to certify the results.

But Johnson says he intends to ask for a recount.
