ADN presents ministers and assembly members as pre-candidates for the 2026 elections
The political movement National Democratic Action (ADN) has officially announced its plans for the upcoming 2026 local elections in Ecuador. The party, linked to the current government, seeks to position its most important figures in local power positions throughout the country.
Among the names proposed as pre-candidates are several ministers from the current cabinet and prominent members of the National Assembly. This strategy aims to use the experience and visibility of these officials to compete for mayoralties and prefectures in the various Ecuadorian provinces.
ADN's decision to choose people who already hold high-level public offices is seen as an attempt to consolidate the ruling party's political project at the regional level. By presenting candidates who already have experience in public administration and the legislature, the movement hopes to strengthen its presence in local governments.
Although there is still time before the 2026 electoral process, this announcement marks the beginning of the party's political organization and electoral strategy. In the coming months, the movement must complete the necessary internal processes to formalize these candidacies and prepare for the official campaign before the citizens.
