In this election. So, the answer is yes and regarding demographics and when people register to vote, dem demographic information is optional. But when it comes to knowing where the high turnout parts of the city are, we know that each election because we provide by default, extra support for those locations every year, every election cycle. And so, we still expect people to go to polling places and we still expect them to want to capacity a ballot, but i think covid is going to also reduce the number of people that go to polling places.
