Overview
- About 14 million eligible voters will decide on lifting the ban on foreign military bases, ending public financing for parties, shrinking the legislature, and convening a Constituent Assembly to draft a new constitution.
- Each question requires more than 50% of valid votes to pass, according to the National Electoral Council.
- If the Constituent Assembly is approved, elections for its members must be called and the resulting draft constitution would go to a new referendum after roughly 180 days.
- President Daniel Noboa urges a Yes vote as a response to escalating criminal violence, with 4,619 homicides reported in the first half of 2025.
- Opposition forces, including the correísmo movement and CONAIE, campaign for No, while advance voting continued through the home-voting program for 597 people and balloting for 1,030 eligible inmates under the election silence period.
