Indigenous candidate insists a “fraud” has been committed, which is the expected reaction, but it reflects Tension and insults In the last 15 days between those who refused a pass to the tiebreaker. Guillermo Lasso, the second most popular candidate, issued a warning such as “the intervention of foreign officials” and the partial withdrawal of police at CNE headquarters. It arrived in Ecuador on Sunday with complaints and concerns from both winners and the election administration about requests from the Attorney General’s Office and the Comptroller’s Office to immediately audit the computer system used to process the results.
A few hours before the full session of the CNE, which was to examine and resolve the challenges of political movements, before announcing the results, the Comptroller’s Office sent a report requesting authorization to access computer equipment to verify computer transparency and prepare a report within 20 days. That request, according to a letter signed by Comptroller General Pablo Celi, was motivated by “many citizen complaints” without giving further details, and should be made “before the second round of elections.”

The system that regulates the process or elections.

In his opinion, the maneuvers of the two regulatory bodies would create a delay in the conduct of the second election rounds, although the Comptroller’s Office estimated that the audit process should not exceed 20 days, with the Attorney General’s Office setting a deadline of 10 days to submit your expert report.
