Court rejects election fraud claims
The Star
|April 17, 2025
ECUADOR’S CNE electoral council and international observers on Tuesday dismissed claims of fraud in presidential elections that saw incumbent Daniel Noboa emerge victorious over leftist rival Luisa Gonzalez.

Gonzalez has refused to accept the outcome of Sunday's run-off vote that Noboa won with 55.6% of votes cast compared to her own weaker-than-expected 44.4%.
She had said she would seek a recount, but had not yet made a formal request, according to the CNE.
CNE president Diana Atamaint insisted in an interview with Teleamazonas on Tuesday that the process had been “totally transparent”.
Observers from the Organization of American States (OAS) and the EU also ruled out irregularities in the run-off round that saw Noboa, 37, declared the winner three hours after polls closed.
