Tents replace some North Carolina polling places destroyed by Helene
Early voting is underway in North Carolina, and the state is making it easier for people impacted by Hurricane Helene to cast their ballot.
After so many towns and roads were washed away by Helene’s flooding and mudslides in Western North Carolina, state officials decided to erect tents to act as polling places for Tuesday’s election.
Voting has already started for Tuesday’s election. In the areas hard-hit by Helene, many polling places are no longer easy to get to. As a solution, the state has put up tents to act as temporary polling places for voters.
Seven tents have been erected in four of the most devastated counties in North Carolina: Buncombe, Burke, Haywood and Yancey. Four tents are in place in Yancey County, while Buncombe, Burke and Haywood counties have one tent each.
