Incumbent Daniel Noboa was holding a healthy and unexpectedly comfortable lead in Ecuador’s presidential race on Sunday, with 56% of valid votes counted. Naboa leads leftist rival Luisa Gonzalez by 12 points.
Incumbent Daniel Noboa, who has been president for just over 16 months, faced leftist Gonzalez, whom he beat in a 2023 race to become Ecuador’s leader.
Noboa, of the National Democratic Action party, finished 16,746 votes ahead of his rival in the first round in February.
Noboa has essentially stayed on in a caretaker role since 2023, when his predecessor stepped down amid impeachment proceedings.
