Initially her party wanted her to succeed Mr Villavicencio as presidential candidate, but later party officials decided to keep her as running mate and chose Christian Zurita as The Replacement . They feared she could have been disqualified, as she was already registered as vice-presidential candidate.
As the ballot papers had already been printed, Fernando Villavicencio 's name will remain on the ballot.
Violence has not ceased since The Attack on The Candidate . Pedro Briones, a local leader of the left-wing Citizen Revolution Party in Esmeraldas,
" Any one of us is exposed to this level of violence, " Ms González said.
" Taking your child to school is already a High Risk . Every time you stop at a traffic light you are exposed to getting shot or having a bomb next to your car.
" The Level of violence that Ecuador is experiencing has never been seen before. "
But she says this will not stop her attempts to achieve what her mentor had dreamed of.
" I feel a lot of weight on my shoulders, " She Said .
