Daniel Noboa and Veronica Abad
Daniel Noboa and his running mate Verónica Abad were the first couple to accept their candidacy in the CNE. Both will participate with the Acción Democrática Nacional (ADN) alliance , the name of the local movement that Noboa promotes, but has not yet been able to register with the CNE.
The process took place one day after the CNE approved this alliance, made up of the movements People, Equality and Democracy (PID, of former President Lenin Moreno’s cousin) and Mover (formerly Alianza PAIS).
Noboa had presented his presidential candidacy several days ago. However, he remained silent after his father, businessman and former presidential candidate Álvaro Noboa, announced in a video that he would run again in these elections. The video was later removed from social media.
Daniel Noboa was an assembly member for the United Ecuadorian movement since 2021, and was dismissed with the declaration of the cross death. Verónica Abad was a candidate for Mayor of Cuenca in 2023 , for the Amigo movement.
