The problem that Ecuador and America face to vote in times of pandemic

 The biggest problem facing the elections in Ecuador are the obstacles invented by the National Electoral Council, whose members were appointed by Lenin Moreno through the Interim Council for Citizen Participation, with the express objective of preventing the participation of Rafael Correa and his loyal followers, in the sectional elections of 2019 and now in those of 2021. In addition to preventing Correa's participation in other elections, a crafty and illegal popular consultation was held, in which he asked whether popularly elected candidates could be reelected only once, and this proposal won, with which Correa was eliminated as a candidate for president in the future, so he thought to apply for vice president, but by means of a court ruling they disqualified him for 25 years from any public office. List 5 was also annulled, of a party that lent itself so that Correa's candidates won the prefectures of Pichincha and Esmeraldas, two of the 3 most populated provinces of Ecuador, in 2019, in addition, sentences were issued against their Most loyal and outstanding collaborators, to prevent their participation and even imprisoned, the rest were forced to take refuge in other countries, as political refugees.

In all the elections in America, including that of the United States, the problem has been transparency, which in Bolivia led to a coup, provoked by Luis Almagro, the Secretary General of the OAS, In Chile, as in Argentina and Bolivia, the overwhelming triumphs, left opponents with no choice. In Venezuela, the gain with more than 67 percent of Maduro's party is questioned, because it is alleged that the opposition did not participate, but the most important opponents did not participate, to boycott the elections, since they looked weak before the ruling party. In the United States in the elections with the highest voter turnout in history, the vote by mail was questioned many times by Trump and 600,000 other votes were detected, which left doubts about electoral transparency in that country.

Among the difficult problems that our electoral bodies have to face, technology is the one that has failed the most, it happened in Ecuador and Bolivia. then there is the capture, reception, custody and surveillance of the votes, as well as the counting and the role of the media that has oversized the events, in favor of a candidate in these two countries.

 Given the operation, organization and trajectory of the National Electoral Council, it is expected that all these irregularities will happen, if it gets a second vote in April or there is an overwhelming victory for Araúz in the first round.

. For now, the problem at hand is that Andrés Araúz still cannot participate. If the participation of Arúz is not possible, an uncontrollable social explosion is possible, which will force Moreno to flee the Carondelet Palace, as Bucaram, Mahuad and Lucio Gutiérrez left and an urgent call with Arauz as a candidate, after the appointment of a new National Electoral Council and a court to judge electoral disputes
