9 Divisive Energy Issues for the Election

9 Divisive Energy Issues for the Election

Steve Hargreaves, CNNMoney
It's likely more land and offshore areas would be open for drilling if Mitt Romney wins the White House. He has repeatedly called for more state control (read: faster permitting) and for drilling to be allowed in waters off the East and West Coasts.Obama has a mixed record on drilling. He's opened some new areas in the Gulf of Mexico and issued preliminary permits to drill in the Arctic. But his administration has issued fewer permits than that of George W. Bush, largely as a result of the moratorium following the BP spill.http://money.cnn.com/gallery/news/economy/2012/09/24/energy-obama-romney/index.html
