USA polygons
Today I will update USA's polygon data with OSM data from 2020-04-04 (Y-M-D). From what I can see there are no changes. But since it's a big country I wanted to inform you anyway. In case you hear something, you know what it could be.

Here is the output of the compare script between live and a test import.

There were four renamed counties in OSM, but I forced PGC to use the old ones to keep better backwards compatibility with existing challenge checkers.
