Abstract

Six in ten New Hampshire residents are worried about paying for gas and believe gasoline prices will rise over the next twelve months. Two-thirds believe President Trump is very responsible for the increase in gasoline prices. As gas prices increase, Granite Staters are less positive about their personal finances compared to a year ago and many expect to be worse off a year from now. New Hampshire residents are also downbeat on the national economy, as nearly half anticipate bad times over the next year and two-thirds believe the economy is getting worse.
