Santa Fe soda tax campaign spent $163 per vote
Santa Fe voters rebuffed a soda tax proposal despite heavy spending by both sides. Campaign finance reports show at least $3.25 million poured into the special election on the early childhood education tax, with per voter spending around $163 after 19,915 ballots were counted. Billionaire Michael Bloomberg and the American Beverage Association were among major contributors. Additional final-days spending remains unreported.
