The National Electoral Council (Consejo Nacional Electoral) declared Daniel Noboa the winner of the second round of elections on the evening of April 13th. It should be noted that Noboa’s main challenger, Luisa Gonzalez, has contested the election results and is demanding an immediate recount. Many are surprised by the election outcomes given the fact that Ms. Gonzalez lost by less than 20,000 votes in the first round of voting and she was able to secure the support of Leonidas Iza, an influential Indigenous leader who secured roughly 500,000 votes during the first round. That said, with this apparent victory, it is certain that Noboa’s declared “internal armed struggle” will continue to negatively and disproportionately impact Ecuador’s poor and AfroEcuadorian communities.

Colombia’s President Petro: ‘I Cannot Recognize Elections In Ecuador’

Amidst the irregularities that characterized the second round of general elections in Ecuador, held last Sunday, April 13, Colombian President Gustavo Petro has announced that he “cannot recognize the [results of the] elections in Ecuador,” regarding the irregularities that have characterized the second round of general elections in Ecuador, held last Sunday, April 13, and the count tallied by the National Electoral Council (CNE). Petro justified his stance by citing irregularities highlighted by the Organization of American States (OAS) and the state of emergency decreed by the then-president and reelection-aspiring candidate, Daniel Noboa, in seven provinces of the country—where more than half of the electoral roll is concentrated, with leftist orientation—hours before the vote.
