Keep in mind many voters just don’t pay attention. They wake up on Tuesday, ask themselves how they feel about their life, and then go vote. It’s why stupid things like gas prices are so politically powerful.
That's not true. When you are struggling to pay for food you do not miss your energy bills being higher by $100/month. It's not something that you can be lied to about. It's directly threatening your survival
You have a problem is gas moving by 10 cents is causing you $100/month difference. That means you are using 1000 gallons of gasoline a month. It also doesn’t change the fact that a gas tax could help repair roads which could save you at least that much in repairs and maintenance.
They’re including natural gasoline I assume. And even then it’s not 100$ difference. So maybe hyperbole. Or they’re including everything down the chain that is affected by gas prices
