Sweep: Could you also add a status to the ballot page please? The status should depend on the new has_ended and be coloured depending on status. Thank you

Proposed Changes

client_code/forms/routes/ballot/Read/__init__.py

Modify client_code/forms/routes/ballot/Read/init.py with contents: • Add a new label component to the ballot page to display the status. Name this label as status_label. • In the __init__ method, after the line where the vote button is enabled or disabled, add a condition to check the has_ended method of the ballot. • If the has_ended method returns True, set the text of the status_label to "Ended" and its color to red. • If the has_ended method returns False, set the text of the status_label to "Ongoing" and its color to green.
