Your Vote's Expensive to Politicians 8/15

This election is tremendously more expensive than any others we have had. My house received 91 different mailers (give or take a few that hit the trash). Politicians raised and spent ridiculous amounts of money. That combined with PAC spending, makes your vote very valuable. The question is how valuable? They way the math works out, each vote is worth as much as a dinner out. The question is do we think it is.
