Has post-election gas price hike already started? | Eastern NC Now

Speedway bumps price for unleaded up to $4.38

ENCNow

Gas was around $3.11 for unleaded this morning.  This afternoon, Speedway, usually the first to raise prices, has skyrocketed it to $3.38.  As Biden's election ploy of draining the strategic petroleum reserve to somewhat restrain prices is ending with election day, the expectation of price increases after the election has always been there, but to see it jump the day BEFORE election day is just astounding.

Thanks for the heads up. After I voted I went into town to Murphy's it was still $3.11 at 7am this morning. The Speedway at the corner of 15th and Carolina Ave was at that time $3.39.
I wonder how much Biden's words on no more drilling are playing into the prices, not to mention when he cuts off draining the SPOR to keep prices lower.
Even at $3.11 a gallon it was still $1.11 higher than the $2.10 I paid on Jan. 20, 2021.
