election
Both countries grapple with representing a vast population with competing priorities, and both are plagued by many of the same invisible hands that shape elections behind the curtain—dark money, corporate interests, and intentionally fake or misleading news, to name a few.

Dark Money
Dark money groups spend millions to shape our elections without revealing where their money comes from.

What is 'Dark Money'
Dark money refers to the funds donated to nonprofit organizations that in turn spend it in order to influence elections. These nonprofit organizations can receive an unlimited amount of donations, and they're not required to disclose their donors. The opacity of this donation process often allows these companies to significantly influence the election process.

dinheiro desvirtuado
Eu usaria a expressão “dinheiro desvirtuado “ pois segundo o significado de desvirtuado como abaixo, acho que cairia bem pra o contexto da tradução
1. Que foi desacreditado
2. Que foi alterado, mudado, deturpado
3. Que perdeu o prestígio, o mérito
Vi esse adjetivo bastante usado nos documentos relacionados à operação Lava Jato no Brasil

caixa dois; dinheiro obscuro
Penso que há duas possibilidades de tradução para PT-Br: caixa dois ("saco azul", em PT-Pt) ou dinheiro obscuro, dependendo do contexto específico.
"In the politics of the United States, dark money is funds given to nonprofit organizations—and include 501(c)(4) (social welfare) 501(c)(5) (unions) and 501(c)(6) (trade association) groups—that can receive unlimited donations from corporations, individuals and unions. They can spend funds to influence elections, but are not required to disclose their donors." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_money
"A expressão caixa dois, também escrito na forma caixa 2, se refere a recursos financeiros não contabilizados e não declarados aos órgãos de fiscalização competentes do Poder Executivo. (...) No caso do caixa dois eleitoral,[6] são valores de empresas ou de agentes financeiros que são doados à determinados candidatos e/ou partidos políticos como forma de receber em troca favores políticos caso estes sejam eleitos ( entre eles processos irregulares, aprovação de leis que os favoreçam, entre outras atividades)." - https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caixa_dois
