Hurricane Helene has caused a shift in the plans of the presidential candidates this week. Democratic nominee Kamala Harris is cutting short a campaign visit to Las Vegas to return to Washington for briefings, while Republican candidate Donald Trump is heading to Georgia to assess the storm's impact.
The death toll from Hurricane Helene has surpassed 100 people, with significant damage caused by inland flooding in North Carolina. Natural disasters like this not only pose humanitarian crises but also present political challenges for elected officials, especially in the final weeks of a presidential campaign.
