"Pre-Election Gas Prices Dip Below $3 Per Gallon"

"U.S. drivers will pay an average of less than $3 per gallon on Election Day, according to AAA.

It's the first time gas prices have dropped to that level since Dec. 22, 2010.

“Consumers are experiencing ‘sticker delight’ as gas prices unexpectedly drop below $3.00 in much of the country,” AAA CEO Bob Darbelnet said in a statement. “Lower gas prices are a boon to the economy just in time for holiday travel and shopping.”"
