I was thinking of just the Presidential election. Obama spend $737 million in 2012 to be elected.
Either way, Coke and Pepsi spend more every year to help us decide what to drink. 6 Billion dollars is ~18$ per citizen every four years for elections. The US is a different animal though with the effective two party system in place right now.
