US Gas Prices Expected to Drop Below $3/Gallon Ahead of Election

Analysts predict a significant decline in fuel costs, providing potential political benefits for Vice President Kamala Harris.

The national average for regular gasoline is currently $3.24 per gallon, down from $3.44 a month ago.
Thirteen states already have average gas prices below $3 per gallon, with more expected to follow.
Weaker fuel demand and lower oil prices are key factors driving the decrease in gasoline prices.
The drop in gas prices could positively impact Harris's presidential campaign, especially in swing states.
Hurricane Francine poses a potential risk to oil production, which could temporarily affect fuel prices.
