2021 Ecuadorian general election

(

... that Lenín Moreno is not running for re-election as president in the 2021 Ecuadorian general election, but 16 other people are? Source: Economist article, not enough space here to include the 16 sources for each candidate
- ALT1:... that ...? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)

The article is long enough and new enough. I assume good faith on the non-English references and on a couple references that are used for the hook. Those hook references say that I need to sign in to read the the rest of the articles. A QPQ has been completed. The "16 other people" refer to the list of candidates and all of them are referenced except for one of them. The only problems are that the sentences "Alianza Honestidad, the coalition of the Partido Socialista Ecuatoriano and Concertación parties, nominated César Montúfar Mancheno, with vice presidential nominee Julio Villacreses Guillém" and "Parties have to receive at least 5% of the vote in national elections in order to maintain their legal registration" are unreferenced.

Oops, not sure how I missed the ref for that candidate. Added to the article. I couldn't find which reference that other part about 5% of the vote was from, so I removed it for now (I'll put it back in later if I find a source for it). jp×g 17:22, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

This is ready. SL93 (talk) 20:23, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Per WP:DYK#Content, we do not run political hooks within 30 days before an election. I am moving this to the special occasions area for after February 7, but a new hook will probably have to be submitted at that time. Yoninah (talk) 17:40, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
@JPxG: the hook needs rephrasing. It sounds like 16 people are running for re-election. Yoninah (talk) 18:47, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

Maybe:
ALT1: ... that Lenín Moreno is not seeking re-election as president in the 2021 Ecuadorian general election, but 16 other people are in the running?
Or shorter:
ALT2: ... that Lenín Moreno, who was elected president of Ecuador in 2017, is not seeking re-election in the 2021 election? Yoninah (talk) 20:28, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
