Democrats See Encouraging Signs for 2020 in Tuesday's Elections

Jim Malone

   WASHINGTON - U.S. Democrats are celebrating election victories in the
   states of Virginia and Kentucky that could point to trouble for
   Republican President Donald Trump and his bid for re-election next
   year.

   Thanks to support from suburban voters, Democrats took control of both
   chambers of the state legislature in Virginia, a boon to the state's
   Democratic Governor Ralph Northam.

   "Because I am here to officially declare today, November the 5th, 2019,
   that Virginia is officially blue (Democratic). Congratulations!"
   Northam told the crowd on election night.
