Interim scoring after round 1 (11 Oct)

All five series forecast who wins the seat, so after round 1 the score is only partial. For the five districts decided in round 1 we compute full Brier and log scores. For the rest we measure how much probability each series put on candidates who were eliminated (lower is better), whether its favourite advanced, and what its Brier will be if the round-1 leader or the runner-up wins the runoff. The scored snapshot is the 9 Oct freeze; "ref" rows are later odds, for comparison only. Full scoring follows round 2.
