Campaign signs are seen on lawns in the Toronto riding of Davenport on Canada’s federal election day on Monday, Oct. 19, 2015. More often than not, the biggest spenders did not win on Oct. 19, an analysis by The Canadian Press indicates. (Aaron Vincent Elkaim/CP)OTTAWA – Money can’t buy you votes.

However, the German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung, which first received the data more than a year ago, said it was confident the material was genuine.
