We use candidate name as a unique ID #69

At the archive we enter candidate names, which are passed to this system and then linked to a CRP unique ID. This is backwards! We should be storing unique ID at the archive and looking up the name from that.

The current model doesn't allow us to have separate "Senate" or "President" records for a candidate that appears in two places.
