President Trump on Monday touted a new drop in oil prices during his "closing pitch to voters" ahead of Tuesday's midterm elections, according to a report from The Hill. The remarks came on the day before the vote.

The Hill reported that the international benchmark Brent crude was trading at $104 on Monday afternoon, down from as high as $112 earlier in the day. The report gives price levels for two benchmarks, one international and one American.

The U.S. benchmark, WTI, was trading at about $96 per barrel, The Hill reported. The summary of that report is cut off before it gives WTI's earlier level, so the full size of the decline for that benchmark cannot be determined from the summary.

The summary does not say what caused the decline in prices. It also does not state whether the president linked the drop to any specific policy or action, and it does not describe how the Monday levels compare with prices earlier in the year.

Rachel Frazin wrote the report, which was published on Monday, November 2. The figures are described as Monday afternoon trading levels, and the summary offers no later prices for either benchmark.

The report places the price announcement in the final stretch of the campaign, one day before voters go to the polls for the midterms. Beyond the figures and the president's remarks as described in the summary, no further details are available from the source.
