Although until noon the electoral process in the capital Azuaya presented itself without major setbacks, the candidates of Cuencan for the vice-presidency of the Republic came to vote very aware of their safety. One of them arrived in the shelter and protected by a bulletproof vest and the other, surrounded by his supporters.

The first to exercise his right to vote was Erika Paredes, running mate of Otto Sonnenholzner, who, on leaving his vote reception committee (JRV), made a few statements focused on the fight against precariousness.

“A criminal who shoots an Ecuadorian will receive that shot in the same way and we will strongly support all the public force,” said the Cuenca politician who voted at the Ciudad de Cuenca school.

Regarding his private custody, he assured that they had refused the help of the police because he preferred that the police who were going to be behind him were in the street.

With a triumphalist speech, he retires to go to Guayaquil, where he will receive the results.

After 10:00 a.m. he arrived at Manuel J. Calle la the candidate Verónica Abad, running mate of Daniel Noboain the middle of a security circle made up of policemen and private guards who did not lose sight of what was happening around them.

Before going to his JRV, he went up to the second floor of the educational establishment to give a press conference, during which he complained about the insecurity Ecuador is experiencing, but also said it was already in the second round and the trend was marked later in the presidential debate held last Sunday.

She also joined the complaints made on social networks, in which it was mentioned that migrants could not vote electronically. “My family who are in Canada can’t do it, they can’t get into the link. In a system that is compromised, it makes us think, because we come from a process that has not worked,” he concluded.

The results will be received at an Institute of Technological Studies located in the center of Cuenca. (YO)
