So why is DHS footdragging on disaster relief in the areas hurt by hurricane Helena?
Well, for starters, the part of North Carolina most badly hit is primarily Republican.
With the election just weeks away the Democrats hope the damage suppresses GOP turnout in this important state.
FTA:
In Avery, Buncombe, and Watauga counties, elections staff are working or taking calls. The status of Mitchell and Yancey counties is not clear as the elections website lists them as "closed” with no other details.
The website also includes a breakdown by party among registered voters in the 25 counties designated as disaster zones. Some 480,000 voters are registered as Republican and 292,000 as Democratic.
Another 490,000 are unaffiliated with either major party, the elections website shows. Around 10,000 people are registered with third parties in the affected areas.
