Just to respond to your specific point, regardless of ability to spend and relative effectiveness of spending and so on, people will see spending a lot of money as "trying to buy votes."

And I think pretty much any image you'll see like this is propaganda. It's designed for somebody to view quickly and draw a conclusion.

Another thing to consider is how it highlights the difference in money source, not just the total dollar amounts.

Yep. Showing the source of the money spent also begs the audience to draw a hasty conclusion.
