[EL] money in 2012 elections query

[Rick Hasen]

The FEC reports $7.1 billion in Federal Election Activity in the 2012 
election season.

http://www.fec.gov/press/press2013/20130419_2012-24m-Summary.shtml

Has anyone tried to compile a broader number which counts state and 
local election activity as well? I know those numbers are notoriously 
difficult to calculate.

Thanks for any leads.

Rick
