In a shocking turn of events, the running-mate of Fernando Villavicencio, who was shot three times in the head after a campaign rally in Quito, will now step in as the presidential candidate for Ecuador’s Construye party. Ms. Gonzalez, a 36-year-old environmentalist, has been chosen to continue Villavicencio’s legacy and fight against corruption and gang violence. However, this tragic incident has not only impacted the country’s political landscape but has also raised concerns about the safety and security of candidates and the rise in crime rates in Ecuador.
