Hurricane Helene hit especially hard in heavily Republican areas of Georgia and North Carolina — a fact that could work to Donald Trump’s disadvantage in the two swing states.
Research has shown that major disasters can influence both voter turnout and voter preference. And Helene has pushed this contest into novel territory: It’s the first catastrophic event in U.S. history to hit two critical swing states within six weeks of a presidential election, based on a POLITICO’s E&E News analysis of data compiled by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
The challenge for Trump: The parts of western North Carolina and eastern Georgia that were flooded by the monster storm are largely Republican. In 2020, he won 61 percent of the vote in the North Carolina counties that were declared a disaster after Helene. He won 54 percent of the vote in Georgia’s disaster counties
What a coininkydink.
And this is why Harris told FEMA to not help these people because if things improve they can vote can’t let that happen
And strangely enough, FEMA is hardly helping out in NC. There are no coincidences.
I was also reading today that there are people getting ill from that bio chemical plant that blew up somewhere a few days ago.
All of this isn’t just happenstance.
Ashville, NC is liberal.
I guess Politico isn’t taking into consideration the anger the American people will have toward Biden/Harris for depleting FEMA funds in favor of illegals.
I can’t prove the deep state is manipulating the weather to swing the election, but this is how they would do it.
Yes.
They will get that vipers nest up and voting first pronto.
Just a coincidence surely
Can they get election system/mechanics up and running in less than a month?
The Democrats see this activity as perfectly acceptable.
The Republicans have no excuse not to do this.
Perhaps the RNC and Elon could work together to provide transportation on a large scale for Trump voters to get to and from the polls, and even include some “hurricane victim relief funds” to each republican taking advantage of the free transportation afterwards.
Manipulating the weather? No. But taking full advantage of the situation and pulling all the necessary strings to drag the cacklin’ commie and Coach Bugeyes across the finish line? You bet.
The storm damage could suppress republican turnout and swing both GA and NC to Kamala. Dems will do their best to take advantage of this crisis.
Better see to it,that they get to vote.First they need to eat,try to recover.
