HURRICANE Sandy has raised concerns in President Barack Obama's campaign that it could impact his re-election to the extent that voters are kept from going to the polls, a top strategist says.
"Obviously we want unfettered access to the polls because we believe that the more people come out, the better we're going to do," David Axelrod told CNN on Sunday.
"And so to the extent that it makes it harder, you know, that's a source of concern," he said.
With the storm due to hit late Monday, both Obama and Republican rival Mitt Romney have scrambled to revamp their schedules in the final stretch of a campaign that is already very close.
Obama cancelled two campaign events and moved up a visit to Florida on Sunday so he could be back in Washington before the so-called "Frankenstorm" makes landfall on the US East Coast.
"I don't know how all the politics will sort out. It depends on how scenarios are impacted," Axelrod said.
"And so the best thing we can do is focus on how we can help people during this storm and hope that it all clears out and that by the next weekend we'll be free of it and people can focus on the election."
