Dems pumped about gas prices

WASHINGTON

In Washington state, “Gas Pump Man,” a campaign volunteer dressed in a leotard and mask, has been making appearances at filling stations on behalf of Democratic challenger Darcy Burner to accuse Republican Rep. Dave Reichert of being too cozy with the oil industry.

In parts of North Carolina, Kentucky and Ohio, Democratic candidates themselves are rolling up their sleeves and filling up cars and minivans for half-price or less. Their campaigns are picking up the difference in price.
