In Ecuador, the candidate for the Citizens' Revolution, Luisa GonzĂĄlez, did not recognize
00:19
the results of the 2025 presidential runoff that gave the victory to current President
00:25
Daniela Novoa. This way, GonzĂĄlez emphasized that her party's Citizens' Revolution has
00:31
always recognized the electoral results, except Sundays. GonzĂĄlez denounced that previous
00:36
opinion polls and surveys, including those of the national government, did not present
00:42
a difference as alarming as the one of the votes seemingly counted. With many irregularities
00:48
being denounced by voters and organizations, GonzĂĄlez demanded that the votes be recounted
00:53
with the due transparency.
01:02
I want to be very clear and categorical. The Citizens' Revolution has always recognized
01:08
a defeat, in the last elections, when the polls and statistics have shown it. Today we do
01:16
not recognize the results.
01:28
I am going to be very clear, in the name of the men, women, children, young people, whom
01:49
I represent, whom all of us who are here represent, in the name of the people we represent. We
01:58
do not recognize the results presented by the National Electoral Council.
02:02
After the denunciation of electoral fraud by the Citizens' Revolution candidate, Luisa GonzĂĄlez,
02:11
the National Electoral Council of Ecuador proclaimed Daniela Novoa as the re-elected president of
02:17
the country. After a process marked by irregularities with the government of Daniela Novoa and the
02:21
CNA interfering in the electoral exercise, in addition, the members of the Citizens' Revolution
02:27
denounced that the electoral body was uploading the minutes without signing them, which is
02:33
a violation of the electoral laws of the country.
02:36
What is the result of the election of the election?
02:44
Staying in Ecuador, the vice-presidential candidate Diego Borja denounced irregularities in the electoral
02:49
process, pointing out that the exit polls only showed a two percentage point difference between
02:55
the two candidates. This is an extremely rare result, extremely rare, which gives us elements
03:04
to say that it is absolutely desired. Look, some facts. There are 11 surveys that gave us the triumph
03:12
of the binomial of the Citizens' Revolution. There are two exit polls, which are the measurements at the
03:19
polling stations. One gave candidate Novoa the triumph, and the other gave us the triumph. In both cases,
03:28
with a difference of around two percentage points. Neither his nor ours showed major differences. And now
03:37
that the official results are given, we are with a difference of 12 percentage points in favor of Novoa,
03:42
when neither the surveys nor their exit polls showed that.
03:52
In this regard, the General Secretary of the Citizens' Revolution Party of Ecuador, Andrés Arauz,
03:57
denounced through a social media post some of the irregularities detected during the electoral process.
04:03
Arauz presented evidence of unleashed violations to the electoral law and showed
04:09
meanings without the proper signatures. He warned, according to Article 127 of the
04:15
the Code of Democracy, a policy that does not have the joint signatures of the President and Secretary
04:21
of the Board, is not valid. However, he continued, the National Electric Council is uploading minutes
04:27
without signatures to support the results. In all cases, they are in favor of Novoa.
04:41
Regarding the accusations of important political personalities of Ecuador
04:45
and the rest of the world about the electoral fraud of presidential candidate Daniel Novoa
04:49
in the presidential elections of the country, the Executive Secretary of ALBA-TCP issued the following communiqué.
04:56
In view of the development of the second round of elections for the Presidency and Vice-Presidency
05:02
of the Republic of Ecuador, organized under a basic and unusual decree of state of assumption,
05:09
having an important impact on the provinces with the greatest popular electoral tradition,
05:14
in a context of general intimidation of the people and open advantage by the government of Daniel Novoa,
05:20
the Executive Secretariat of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of our America, ALBA-TCP,
05:26
categorically condemns these irregular actions that suggest the execution of a clear premeditated electoral fraud.
05:34
The ALBA-TCP Executive Secretariat highlights the democratic spirit of the Ecuadorian people in the defense of their
05:42
sovereignty and democracy and supports the demand for a review of the electoral process through a rigorous
05:50
investigation, including a comprehensive audit of all procedures and measures, as well as the
05:56
corresponding and transparent recount of the votes cast. This is the only way to guarantee respect for
06:02
the will of the people and peace in the Sister Republic of Ecuador.
