Warehouse data in a better location #6

Right now the CSV data driving the election coverage is warehoused as CSVs on a linode server. This is fine, but given that ChiHackNight has a Netlify OSS plan, it would be ideal to utilize that already available service.

Options for data storage include:

Just stick it in the repo
On file access commodity storage (R2, S3) with CDN
On build commodity storage (R2, S3) with CDN bundled with app

The data here really is not too huge, so any of these would be fine

Tentatively resolved with "just stick it in the repo" at least for geojson, which is definitely the heaviest data.

@yashBhosale lets save the csv output to output/csv like we do with the geojson
