How many members does the Mexican Chamber of Deputies have, alongside a Senate of 128 seats?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. 500 deputies, of whom 300 are elected by district
- Step 1: Congress is made up of two chambers. Step 2. The lower house has 500 seats, of which 300 are by district and 200 by proportional lists. Answer: 500 deputies, of whom 300 are elected by district. Why not the others: 300 is only the district seats, 628 adds the two chambers, and 400 is wrong.
