Should there be a legal cap on how much money can be spent on U.S. political campaigns?
Since the Supreme Court's 2010 Citizens United decision, outside spending on federal U.S. elections has grown into the billions each cycle.

Votes cast anywhere this poll is embedded count toward the same live total.
Though it's a little disappointing that spend is strongly correlated with winning. What does that say about our ability to separate truth from volume/frequency of message? (though I'm not sure spend-to-win correlation is fully causal, as stronger candidates likely attract more $$$)
to the "no restrictions" crowd: does that hold when it's a foreign-funded super pac drowning out your local school board race, or is there a line somewhere you'd actually draw?
