Fabio 5b0712c31f 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.
