The most expensive Republican votes

By Natalie Gonnella and Tim Montgomerie

The Washington Post has calculated how much money different candidates spent for every vote they won.

The most expensive campaign, per vote, was run by the GOP candidate in Nevada. Sharron Angle spent $97 per vote on her unsuccessful campaign. That's $28 more per vote than Harry Reid, her successful opponent.

The second highest spender per vote was also a defeated Republican; Linda McMahon in Connecticut. She also spent near $97 but 49 cents less than Angle.

Although Meg Whitman ran the most expensive GOP campaign in total - $140 million - her average spend per voter was much less at just over $40.

The thriftiest campaign was run by Republican Minnesotan Chip Craavack. He spent $5 for every vote he received.
