Republican Incumbents in CO and NC were elected in the 2014 Republican wave by a narrow margin.
Republican incumbent in AZ was appointed to the US Senate in 2018/2019 after narrow losing the 2018 AZ US Senate Election for the other AZ US Senate seat.
If Democrats want to regain control of the US Senate in 2020, they need to win KS.
KS has not sent a Democrat to the US Senate since 1932. The likely Democratic nominee for the 2020 KS US Senate Race is Barbara Bollier, a Republican turned Democratic KS state senator. The likely Republican nominee for the 2020 KS US Senate Race is Kris Kobach, the 2018 Republican Nominee for KS Governor who lost in the November General Election.
