Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`raceId` is `null`
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	clearRuledRaceIdTerms
Description	Clears the race `Id` query terms.
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	supportsRuledRaceQuery
Description	Tests if a `RaceQuery` is available.
Return	`boolean`		`true` if a race query is available, `false` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getRuledRaceQuery
Description	Gets the query for a race. Multiple retrievals produce a nested `OR` term.
Return	`osid.voting.RaceQuery`		the race query
Errors	UNIMPLEMENTED		`supportsRuledRaceQuery()` is `false`

Method	getRaceConstrainerQueryRecord
Description	Gets the race constrainer query record corresponding to the given `RaceConstrainer` record `Type.` Multiple record retrievals produce a nested `OR` term.
Parameters	`osid.type.Type`	`raceConstrainerRecordType`	a race constrainer record type
Return	`osid.voting.rules.records.RaceConstrainerQueryRecord`		the race constrainer query record
