Add elections + demographics layer: candidates and jurisdictions
Two new entity types, built deterministically from the raw exports:
Candidate (2,494) — 2026 federal candidates as files under
us/states/<st>/candidates/, with office,
district, party, incumbent/challenger stance,
campaign committee, FEC id.
Jurisdiction (3,494) — demographic nodes carrying ACS 2023 data:
3,131 counties (deduped from 3,231 mixed-format
fips keys) + 363 congressional districts.
This completes the county skeleton nationwide: every US county is now a
browsable node with population, income, poverty, race, education and
housing — even where no officeholders are mapped yet. In Florida the
county index.md merges into the existing dir and reports its officeholder
count alongside demographics (St. Lucie: 33 officeholders + ACS profile).
build.py now reads seven raw inputs in one deterministic pass
(byte-identical on rerun). The mirror now answers: who holds power, who
runs this institution, who is running, and what each place is made of.
