With over 97% of the votes counted, electoral officials announced that Noboa had secured 52.1% of the vote, compared to 47.9% for Luisa González, a leftist lawyer and ally of exiled former President Rafael Correa.
González conceded defeat and urged Noboa to fulfill his campaign promises during a speech before her supporters.
Noboa, aged 35, will govern Ecuador during a period marked by drug trafficking-related violence that has left citizens feeling vulnerable and concerned about their safety. He expressed his commitment to bringing peace, education, and employment opportunities to the country while addressing issues related to violence, corruption, and hatred.
