00:00In Ecuador, presidential candidate Luisa González of the Citizens Revolution Movement reiterated that she will contest the results of the elections that gave the victory to President Daniel Novoa.

00:10In a video published on Wednesday night in her social networks, she thanked those who supported her with their vote and added that what happened in the second round of elections was a serious attack against the legal and constitutional order of the country.

00:26González accused Novoa of the use of public resources, of the delivery of bonuses without technical support, and also made reference to some of the irregularities such as multiple versions of minutes that were modified by the National Electoral Council itself without signatures and sums that did not coincide with the number of voters.

00:45In the sense, she warned that all these findings would be challenged and contested before the competent authorities in Ecuador.

00:55I want to communicate to the country and to the whole world that all these very serious findings will be challenged and contested before the competent authorities, which today, unfortunately, are under the control of those who govern, as well as of all the legal institutions that assist us.

01:15This in order to prevent Ecuador from becoming a country without peace, without freedom, without democracy, in the midst of a persecution against those of us who have had the courage to raise our voices and who today have more than a million votes scamlessly snatched in an unfair, unequal election never seen in our history.

01:36Yes.

01:37Oh, goodbye.
