I cannot stress this enough: What we are seeing in Ecuador is an attempt to steal an election from a popular leftist candidate.

The US, OAS and Colombia are meddling in Ecuador's internal affairs.

And the electoral body is conspiring with the 2nd/3rd place neoliberal candidates
What Ecuador's National Electoral Council (CNE) has done, holding a private meeting with the 2nd & 3rd place candidates, who used the platform to call to "defeat Correismo," & helping them do a recount of votes overseen by the coup-sponsoring OAS -- all of this is already illegal
Ecuadorian legal experts are stressing this is illegal.

This professor of constitutional law says US-backed candidate Yaku Pérez forcing a recount in Ecuador "passed from being a possibly legitimate claim or doubt to a temper tantrum without legal basis" https://twitter.com/ismaelquintanag/status/1360323546317217802
The agreement Ecuador's National Electoral Council (CNE) -- which has been heavily politicized by the Moreno govt and has put up countless obstacles to try to stop the Correistas from participating -- has no legal basis whatsoever and violates its own laws https://twitter.com/JulianMaciasT/status/1360397711707676672
And this is a whole new level of outrageous electoral interference.

Mere days after the vote, Colombia's biased prosecutor visited Ecuador to advance an absurd right-wing conspiracy targeting the leftist leading presidential candidate.

Blatant meddling! https://twitter.com/FiscaliaEcuador/status/1360359986992467972
Then there is the fact that the OAS, which oversaw a far-right military coup in 2019, selected the extremely right-wing, highly biased ex-VP of Panama to lead its electoral mission in Ecuador

She was deeply involved in the US/OAS coup attempt in Venezuela https://twitter.com/BenjaminNorton/status/1360093208546533376
