Timeline
Andrés Arauz Galarza (born 6 February 1985) is an Ecuadorian politician and economist who ran for Vice President of Ecuador in the 2023 election.
Accompanying Arauz as running mate would have been Rafael Correa, who had been president from 2007 to 2017.
However, his acceptance of the position was rejected by the National Electoral Council, which argued that it was mere procedure rather than politically motivated, as Correa, who resided in Belgium, refused to return to the country and serve an 8-year prison sentence for corruption.
The courts barred Correa from holding a political position for 25 years.
Arauz won the first round of the presidential election with almost 33% of votes.
