R: ~127,000 votes
D: ~114,000 votes
So the Republicans got/spent $22.7m on 127,000 votes. Or roughly $178 per vote.
The Democrats got/spent $31.2m on 114,000 votes. Or roughly $273 per vote.
F politics, man. We need to blow up a lot of these rules and make new ones, but the problem is the only people who can blow up the current status quo in elections are the people who are making millions and millions off of it. So good luck with that.
In the meantime, you're pretty much screwed if you're not one of the two main parties.
