Donald Trump has been accused of politicising Hurricane Helene which hit the southeastern US. last month.
That's following his claims that areas favouring him are being neglected by disaster relief teams.
More than 90 people were killed in the storm.
North Carolina was one of the hardest-hit states.
Al Jazeera’s Phil Lavelle reports from McDowell County in Western North Carolina on whether it could make a difference to how people vote in the battleground state.
