Sen. Bernie Sanders, who staked his presidential campaign on fighting income inequality in America, took his message to Kentucky with rallies in Louisville and Lexington in May.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ended up winning the Bluegrass State by a razor-thin margin. Sanders declared he would stay in the race "until the last ballot is cast."

Sanders saw his campaign as a revolution. "What that revolution means is that millions of people today are beginning to stand up and fight back and demand a government which represents all of us, not just a handful of billionaires," he said.
