The Electoral Promotion Directorate would be analyzing the videos with the participation of the former president, in order to censor them.
José Cabrera, member of the National Electoral Council, was consulted about the possibility of censoring the advertising spots of the UNES campaign, which use the image of the former President of the Republic, Rafael Correa, and indicated that this content could be suspended and taken off the air in the next few hours.
Cabrera stressed that there is no specific impediment for this publicity to be made, but the electoral dissemination is aimed at the electoral promotion of the candidates for different dignities and their proposals, for which the suspension of these spots is being analyzed.
“It is not specified in the Law that someone with an enforceable sentence cannot advertise, but if there is advertising, charged to the electoral promotion fund and that is contrary to the Constitution and the Law, content control must be carried out and it could be suspended ”.
Given this, he indicated that the Electoral Promotion Directorate of the CNE would have reviewed and approved this campaign spot, but the councilors would have asked for a new review of these advertising spots to be carried out, in order to control whether they are complying with the requirement. to promote the candidates’ proposals
“You could ask for a new version of these advertising spots, that there is dissemination of the proposals. In those spots I see that the proposals are not disseminated ”.
