we are going to move on to eric mcgarr to talk about the legislative perspective or outlook. while we load the presentation, eric -- i don't know where you want to sit or stand. ok, perfect. the microphone is yours. eric: thank you. while my presentation is being fromded, i am eric mcgarr -- that's it. that one, you. eah. thank you. citye from itam in mexico and i will be speaking of the congressional races next sunday. as you probably know, all seats in mexico's bicameral congress are up for grabs the. grabs -- grabs next sunday. this has been a much less salient elections than the one for the presidential seat, but i will try to argue it is equally important. we can expect very important changes in this congressional election. although the forecast is a bit harder to do, because unlike presidential races, there is very little: that is actually -- that istle polling relevant to compute. i will guesstimate based on some of the information that is around. you probably know that mexico's electoral system has some elements that are like the u.s. and others that make it different.
