The National Electoral Council (CNE) of Ecuador officially proclaimed this Sunday President Daniel Noboa Azin as the winner of the second electoral round, thus consolidating his reelection as head of the South American country. With more than 90% of the ballots counted, the president of the CNE, Diana Atamaint, announced that the tendency was irreversible, favoring the National Democratic Action (ADN) movement, formed by Noboa and his vice-presidential candidate Mar\u00eda Jos\u00e9 Pinto.<\/p>\n
“Our sincere congratulations to those who have earned the trust of the Ecuadorian people,” said Atamaint during the official statement of the electoral body.<\/p>\n

The second round of elections took place in a climate of political tension, with a high level of citizen participation.<\/p>\n
Daniel Noboa confronted the candidate of the Citizen Revolution movement, Luisa Gonzalez, linked to former President Rafael Correa, who has not recognized the results so far and has publicly denounced alleged irregularities that, according to her, constitute an “electoral fraud”.<\/p>\n
However, so far, no international electoral observation body has endorsed such allegations, and both the Organization of American States (OAS) and the European Union (EU) have praised the transparency of the electoral process.<\/p>\n
Who is Daniel Noboa?<\/h2>\nPHOTO: Screenshot of X<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Daniel Noboa Azin, 37, is a businessman and politician from Guayaquil, son of former presidential candidate Alvaro Noboa.<\/p>\n
In 2023, he was elected president for the first time in an early election following the dissolution of the National Assembly, and his popularity grew during his tenure thanks to his technocratic approach, modernizing economic proposals and a narrative of stability and renewal.<\/p>\n
His campaign for reelection focused on citizen security, the fight against drug trafficking and attracting foreign investment to generate employment, themes that resonated especially with the middle class and young voters.<\/p>\n

Ecuador has an important migrant community in the United States, especially in cities such as New York, Newark, Chicago and Miami.<\/p>\n
Many Ecuadorians living in the U.S. follow their country’s politics closely, both for family ties and for the possibility of returning to or investing in Ecuador.<\/p>\n
Political and economic stability is a key concern, and Noboa’s re-election raises expectations about the continuity of ongoing reforms.<\/p>\n
In addition, more than 400,000 Ecuadorians abroad were eligible to vote in this election, which reinforces the weight of the diaspora in the democratic processes of their country of origin.<\/p>\n
What’s next<\/h2>\n\n
The president of the CNE indicated that, in the next few days, the complete official results will be published and the process of delivery of credentials will begin.<\/p>\n
Daniel Noboa’s formal inauguration is expected to take place in May, giving way to a second term that would extend until 2029.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, various political sectors call for calm and respect for the official results.<\/p>\n
