2020 US Senate Election- Democrats guide to 60 seats.

47D 53R
Democrats will definitely hold onto DE(Coons-D),IL(Durbin-D),MA(Markey-D),MI(Peters-D),MN(Smith-D),NH(Shaheen-D),NJ(Booker-D),NM(Udall-D),OR(Merkley-D),RI(Reed-D),and VA(Warner-D)
Democrats could hold onto AL(Jones-D) if 2020 Democratic Presidential Nominee Kamala Harris increases voter turnout in the African American community in AL and Republicans nominate a mediocre candidate.
Democrats will pick up
1)CO(Gardner-R vs Joe Salazar-D) Salazar-D is a household name in CO, Salazar-D ran for COAG in 2018 lost in the Democratic primary to Weiser-D by a less than 1 percent margin.
2)AZ(McSally-R vs Ruben Gallego-D) Could Gallego-D do in AZ in 2020 what Beto O'Rourke-D almost did in TX in 2018?
3)NC(Tillis-R vs Josh Stein-D) Stein-D is the current NCAG, he knows how to win statewide in NC.
4)GA(Perdue-R vs Stacy Abrams-D) If Abrams-D maintains her star power after giving the Democratic response to the Trump SOTU address, she will win.
5)TX(Cornyn-R vs Beto O'Rourke-D) O'Rourke-D can improve on his performance in 2018 against Cruz-R.
6)IA(Ernst-R vs Rob Sand-D) Sand-D was elected IA Auditor in 2018. he knows how to win statewide in IA.
7)MT(Daines-R vs Steve Bullock-D)
8)ME(Collins-R vs Hannah Pingree-D)
9)KY(McConnell-R vs Amy McGrath-D)
10)WV(Moore vs Richard Ojeda-D)
11)SC(Graham-R vs Joe Cunningham-D)
12)KS(OPEN- Roberts-R/Sharice Davids-D)
13)OK(OPEN-Inhofe-R/Kendra Horn-D)
