>>>>>>>>>>>>>> This breaks the API. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Refactored the commits added by Joe Slag to return the full lists of
candidates.

In Joe's code, the full list of candidates were associated with the vote
objects which didn't make sense since they are really part of results.
I've gone ahead and reimplented this. It does mean that the API has
changed. In the old version, you would get a ranked list of candidates
by using:

  vote_object.results

You now get it by doing:

  result_object.ranked_candidates
  vote_object.result.ranked_candidates
