León Roldós once comfortable lead in the race for Ecuador’s president has shrunk to a statistical tie with his closest rival, Rafael Correa. Ex-vice president Roldós (image) lost ground according to a poll released on Tuesday and is only 1% ahead of Correa, an economist, with Election Day coming up on October 15.
Update (24 September): What a difference a few days make- the latest poll numbers show Correa, a supposed "friend of firebrand Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez", leads Roldós by 8%!
