It looks like the DSCC has identified KY as the tipping point seat to reach 60 in the Senate.

I don't think it's necessarily the tipping point, but rather it's what they secretly hope will be the tipping point.  Massive icing on the Democratic cake if it is.

Especially because Kentucky is the first state to announce its results... right?

I don't think there's a Senate election in Indiana this year.

Indiana has that extra, relevant time-zone in Lake County, right?  Kentucky's divided into two time zones, but nevertheless, by the time polls close on the East Coast, Democrats might know if they just killed the king.
