Supporters of Ecuador’s presidential candidate for the National Democratic Action Party, Daniel Noboa, celebrates after learning the first results of the presidential runoff election in Guayaquil, Ecuador, on October 15, 2023. AFPPIX: Polls closed in Ecuador Sunday with no reports of violence as both presidential candidates cast their votes in bulletproof vests just weeks after a rival was murdered.
The main concerns of Ecuadorans, according to recent polls, are crime and violence in a country where the murder rate quadrupled in the four years to 2022. And the bloodbath has spilled into the streets, with gangs dangling headless corpses from city bridges and detonating car bombs outside police stations in a show of force.
