Alvaro Noboa is in Second Place in Polls



I WILL BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF ECUADOR

Upon his arrival in the province of El Oro in the Santa Rosa region, Álvaro Noboa made the results of the last opinion polls known to the communications media.

“I give you the good news that Rafael Correa is at 32%, Álvaro Noboa is at 26%, Guillermo Lasso is at 9%, and Lucio Gutiérrez is at 7%. Therefore, I am happy and optimistic. I am going to win the second electoral round as well, and will be the next President of Ecuador in order to bring the poor out of poverty.”

The candidate recalled that Assembly Members had been drawn from El Oro and that he is sure he will win in 2013 in order to work for this banana-producing province.

“I am a banana producer and therefore will do everything necessary to protect the banana producers, the shrimp producers, and all of the agricultural, commercial, industrial and tourist zones of the province of El Oro.”

 

TEXTUAL TRANSCRIPTION

Ecuadorians, after conducting a tour of Guayaquil, I have come to the El Oro Province where I will stay today, this first day of the electoral campaign, and tomorrow.

I have good news for you in that, according to the latest opinion polls, Rafael Correa is at 32%, Álvaro Noboa is at 26%, Guillermo Lasso is at 9%, and Lucio Gutiérrez is at 7%. Therefore, I am happy and optimistic that this campaign is going to be very similar to that of 2006, in which I ended up winning the first electoral round and, in a change from 2006, I am going to win the second electoral round as well, and will be the next President of Ecuador in order to bring the poor out of poverty.

This is a province that shares many, many years of fraternal tradition with Álvaro Noboa. From this province, we have drawn Assembly Members. In this province, I won in 1998, and therefore, I am thinking to win now, in 2013, in a banana-producing province. I am a banana producer. Therefore, I will do everything necessary to protect the banana producers, the shrimp producers, and all of the agricultural, commercial, industrial and tourist zones of the province of El Oro.
