I recommend going with the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack for Fat Bikes # SA4412B-FB, which will fit your 2" hitch. This is specifically made to hold 2 electric fat bikes and fits up to 5" wide tires, but will also work with regular bikes. The weight capacity is 60lbs per bike; if your electric bike weighs more than 60lbs then you can remove the battery to slightly reduce the weight.

The Saris Freedom # SA4412B-FB comes with an anti-rattle hitch pin to reduce movement and vibration of the bike rack. There is also a built-in tilt mechanism that allows access to the cargo/trunk area when rack is not in use. It is also extremely lightweight at only 22.5lbs. This is going to be your best option for the price range you mentioned. I have attached a demonstration video for you.
