Reporting support for extended metrics (US) in ReportingUnitVotes

["David RR Webber \(XML\)" <david@drrw.info>]

Here in the US, in addition to raw voting tallies, there are also reported metrics. 

An example and possible approach to supporting this is shown in the XML fragment below.   This is a simple extension to the existing EML ReportingUnitVotes structure via a <Metric> item. 

Thanks, DW
