the ones around me to rubble. while leaving over 200,000 people without power across six states. governor andy bashir spoke about the loss of life in his latest press briefing. we will be north of at least 70 lives lost here in kentucky. i think we will have lost more than a hundred people, and i think it could rise significantly in those numbers. now, the majority of the deaths that he s talking about are right here in mayfield, kentucky. there is a candle factory. it s about eight minutes from where i am right now. it collapsed. they believe that there were 110 people inside the factory at the time. about 40 people were rescued on saturday. i just spoke a few moments ago to kyanna parsons-perez. she was one of the ones rescued. but if you do the math on that, you know that 70 people are not accounted for yet. that doesn t mean that 70 people are in there. but we do not know what the situation is. in nearby bowling green, kentucky, there are 12 confirmed deaths from stor
