Gas Prices Come Down Right Before The Election,This Is A Coincidence
With gas prices dropping significantly six months before a major election... Questioning the motivation of fuel price manipulation...Could this be possible?

Gas prices are so unpredictable. It sucks, and the only time it goes down is during summer and before election.

Well obviously it is a coincidence. What else could it be?

It's only partially a coincidence, because while the elections have not caused gas prices to go down, they have allowed them to go down. Let me explain:

Gas prices were high in the first place because the government was secretly keeping them that way to promote private development of alternative fuals. Now the government and all their lobbyists are focusing on the election, allowing the gas prices to go down.

So the election isn't the reason gas prices went down, but they wouldn't have gone down without it. Therefore it is partially a coincidence and partially not.

No, it is because America has become less fuel dependent within the last year. 5 Percent or more, to give an estimate. And for America, that is amazing.

A surplus in supply and a lowering in demand, along with the regular price of gas in the first place, it dropped a significant amount in price, easily.

With an increase in Crude And Oil Supply, the amount of barrels rising I mean, caused the surplus.

NOW as for the increase in barrels, I don't know. It might have something to do with what you talk about.

But not the price of gas.
