Polls close, counting starts in Ecuador presidential vote
Polls close in Ecuador for the first round of the presidential election and ballot counting begins, with incumbent leader Daniel Noboa tipped to win another term as president. Early exit polls predicted Noboa would get a little over 50 percent of the vote, just enough to avoid a second-round runoff against leftist challenger Luisa Gonzalez, who was on 42 percent. IMAGES
