If only there a way to get to the polls without using oil. ๐ค
The hypothetical experiment assumes basically the current mixture of transportation infrastructure exists by the time Election Day rolls 'round, but people are free to get there however they want with what they already have available. So obviously some of the traffic will be diverted away from cars if gas is e.g. $8/gal, but we're assuming (magically, for the sake of the experiment to avoid a confounding variable) that the experimental price of gas hasn't changed transportation infrastructure from what it is today.
