Office

Use Office to define an office and information associated with its contest. An office is identified by its electoral district and its office role.

The Office element applies to all feed types but doesn't need to be specified for a referenda. However, the definition of an office is interpreted differently based on the feed type. In an election context, an Office represents the title of the office that's sought, such as "Member of the House of Representatives." In an officeholder context, it's a specific seat for a single person.
