●NC-Sen, GA-Sen-B: A massive new scandal unfolded Thursday afternoon when the Center for Responsive Politics and ProPublica reported that Republican Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina had sold as much as $1.72 million in stock holdings just before the markets tanked as the coronavirus pandemic worsened.
