MNI POLITICAL RISK - Hurricane Helene Becomes Campaign Issue

Daily round-up of news from the US.
EM BulletHomepagemarkets-real-timePolitical RiskCommoditiesPolitical Risk BulletEnergy BulletsBulletPower BulletsStory

Executive summary:

  • President Biden will deliver remarks on the administration’s response to Hurricane Helene at the White House at 10:30 ET 15:30 BST. Vice President Kamala Harris will return to Washington from Las Vegas for a briefing on the impact of Helene at FEMA headquarters.
  • Former President Donald Trump will visit Valdosta, Georgia, where he will receive a Helene briefing and deliver remarks at 14:00 ET 19:00 BST. As the storm has hit two key presidential election swing states, North Carolina and Georgia, the disaster is transforming into a major political issue, with the Trump campaign saying Harris “ought to be down in the area” affected by Helene.
  • Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) and Senator JD Vance (R-OH) will meet on Tuesday evening for the only vice-presidential debate of the cycle - likely the last public meeting between the two presidential tickets before Election Day.
  • The International Longshoremen’s Association union said on Sunday that a port strike on the US East Coast and Gulf of Mexico will go ahead, starting on Tuesday.
  • President Biden told reporters the world “really [has] to avoid” a larger-scale war in the Middle East as Israel continues a major operation against the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon.
  • Poll of the Day: Harris is leading former Trump among Latino voters, “but that advantage has declined to Democrats’ lowest level in the past four presidential cycles.”
