President Daniel Noboa stated that his movement, National Democratic Action (ADN), achieved a majority in the National Assembly after adding four legislators. With 70 seats, it surpassed the Citizen Revolution bloc, which had been the leading force since the February elections.
"We already have three, well, four more assembly members who have joined our caucus, a total of 69," Noboa declared on Radio Sucesos. This number later consolidated to 70, surpassing the 67 Correa-aligned assembly members, positioning ADN as the largest bloc in the Legislature.
After the February elections, the Correa-led movement had secured 67 seats, one more than ADN. However, the government's political openness allowed for new support and reversed that initial difference. Noboa has not yet detailed the names of the new allied legislators.
