In a first, Peruvians voted in a legislative election held separately from a presidential ballot.

President Martin Vizcarra dissolved the legislature last year, amid an anti-corruption campaign. 

Michael Shifter is President of the Inter-American Dialogue. 

He spoke with CGTN's Roee Ruttenberg about the vote and what it means for Peru going forward.
