Gas Prices

Somewhere I heard that gas prices were going down because of the elections, and that they would go back up right after the elections. Some powerful people somewhere didn't want gas prices to affect the elections. I guessed that would be the Republicans. I thought, "Oh come on, nobody has the power and organization to control prices that tightly." Elections were Tuesday. Gas prices have gone up about .40 a gallon. Now I'm sort of scared.
