14. Actually, that almost never happens. Gas prices always peak in the summer (election year or not)
decline in the fall, bottom in the winter then rise in the spring to reach peak on the summer again. Since 2000 the biggest drops in price from the summer til early November occurred in 2003 and 2005, not in the election years.
