the entire country on lockdown. The previous quarantined area
ordered by Rome in the north wasn't enough. "There won't be just

total to over 9,000.

SENATE 2020 "Mitch McConnell's Senate majority is in danger,"
writes Hotline's Josh Kraushaar, who was once one of the few

Republicans are almost sure to win back the Senate in Alabama,
Democrats have a great chance at winning in Colorado and Arizona.
Democrats now have a decent chance at winning in North Carolina
and Montana as well. Democrats need to flip four seats to win a
majority, or three seats if there's a Democratic vice president
in January.
