Gas went up 15 cents overnight

[DestinyIsles]

how convenient 3 days before the election, the oil companies want to make sure Republicans win.

[niyad]

1. Gas prices going down here.

[bucolic_frolic]

2. I don't know who wants to make sure Republicans win

[Fullduplexxx]

3. Saudis ... corporate america

Great theyre going to end s.s. just as I am about to go on it

[bucolic_frolic]

4. If you want Repubs to lose, why post gas prices here?

[SCantiGOP]

13. Because it is news and related to the election?

I don’t think this thread is going to impact the election.

[BlackSkimmer]

15. Do you seriously believe people don't know what gas prices are?

Still over 3 bucks here.

So, posting what is actual happening in someone’s area is somehow supporting the Rs?

[Sympthsical]

18. Are you not getting the alerts?

Every time someone posts anything that warrants less than atomic tumescence, I get an alert on my phone. It sounds like an Amber Alert funneled through a vampire bat. This morning, I was at the gym on the arc trainer when it went off and everyone suddenly looked at their phones. Someone sent a dumbbell through the front plate glass window they were so startled.

I think the Wisconsin race shifted a point in the wrong direction.

I just assumed everyone in America was getting these.

Huh.

[BlackSkimmer]

19. Lol!

“Atomic tumescence.” I just snorted my tea!

[Polybius]

20. Do you really think anyone on DU will change their minds and vote Republican?

Democratic support is rock-solid here.

[Fullduplexxx]

28. you asked "I don't know who wants to make sure Republicans win .... "i replied

i replied 'Saudis ... corporate america'' i dont recall bringing up gas prices

[Ocelot II]

5. They're down in my area, by quite a bit.

Prices at the station can depend a lot on regional distributors.

[ornotna]

6. In Florida?

The tax holiday has ended so prices were expected to rise.

[Cattledog]

7. Gas down here in GA. $3.12 gal reg.

[badhair77]

8. In central PA the price went up 8 cents last night.

And that was at the station where the price was cheapest. It’s up over $4 at other stations. Let’s see if anything happens after Tues. I’m just going to be very judicious about what I spend everywhere.

[Meadowoak]

9. $3.25 gal. Here in central KY.

[SCantiGOP]

10. What state?

DeSantis pulled a little ruse where he dropped their 25cent state tax on gas, but it is going back on this week. That will make it appear that costs are rising again.
Nationwide, the trend is still downward, and national
averages are about 10-15% above what they were in 2020.

[Peacetrain]

11. Where do you live??

Ours have been going down again

[Meadowoak]

12. Funny how the increases just seem to be in swing states.

Coincidence, I think not. Gas has been dropping steadily here in KY, while my friend in Mich. Said gas went up 40 cents the last few days.

[onenote]

24. And in Georgia and Virginia, prices are down the last few days.

[multigraincracker]

14. Up 29 cents here in

Mid-Michigan, because, well just because.

[Emile]

16. Had a republican tell me it's because Biden shut down an (imaginary) pipeline

and that's what made gas so high. Republicans say the dumbest things and you know I think they actually believe that crazy shit!

[Marthe48]

17. I saw it was up

It goes up when r's want a win, and goes down when r's want a win.

[Polybius]

21. Way up in NY

Just went last night.

[WestMichRad]

22. It went up about 40 cents/gallon here a couple days ago

$4.29 now
And of course it’ll take a month to return to its previous price of 3.89, just because….

[onenote]

23. Where is "here"?

[MichMan]

26. User name kind of gives it away

[ProfessorGAC]

25. 40 Cents In 3 Days Here

And, there our 4 major refineries within an hour of us.
Can't be supply or shipping.

[TheBeam19]

27. Down 10 cents here over the last three days.

$3.29 down to $3.19.

[USALiberal]

29. Maybe in your city but otherwise no.

[ZonkerHarris]

30. The fact that the oil companies HQs are not surrounded by crowds carrying pitchforks and torches

shows how complacent we are as a people and nation.

[wishstar]

31. Crude Oil went up 5% on Friday's market attributed to China demand expected to increase

due to China supposedly lifting their Covid restrictions.
