MEXICO CITY – As Mexicans prepare to cast their ballots Sunday in the presidential election, the spotlight has shifted from the three candidates to the electoral agency that will reveal which of them is the winner.

With the candidates so close that it's impossible to predict a winner, the IFE must be sure that every step of the voting process is so meticulously carried out that Mexicans believe the agency when it announces the name of their next president.

Sunday's election is a critical test for the IFE.
