Here's how much candidates spent on each vote

On the Democratic side, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was the winner, not only in the number of states and votes she won, but in cost per vote. She and her allies spent about $7.83 million across the Super Tuesday states, and she captured 3,534,665 votes. That's $2.16 per vote.

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders spent slightly less -- $6.1 million -- and took 2,264,165 votes, for a cost of $2.69 per vote.

*Clinton captured +1,270,000 more in popular vote
