The amount of money spent on campaigns for most levels of government has increased greatly recently. However, the first concern should be the transparency issues of the donors.
There are campaign rules from the Federal Election Commission and from the individual states, depending on what level of government a contested office is in. The federal (national) offices' campaign regulations are now compromised due to a dis-functional FEC.
A better electoral system for all government office openings is public financing. By freeing all candidates from campaign fundraising, they can focus on the voting public in their respective races.
