Ecuador goes to the polls amid rise in drug-related gang violence

Ecuadorians are voting in a presidential election that mirrors the 2023 race, with incumbent Daniel Noboa facing leftist candidate Luisa González.

Crime and insecurity, driven by drug trafficking, dominate voter concerns.

Noboa, a conservative millionaire, has reduced the homicide rate but remains unpopular.

González, a protégé of former president Rafael Correa, promises to tackle crime and improve the economy.

Allegations of gang influence on voting have emerged, The Guardian has reported.

If no candidate wins outright, a runoff will be held on April 13.
