My native country of Ecuador is holding run-off presidential elections today.

Assange has enjoyed refuge in the Ecuadorean embassy at the pleasure of President Rafael Correa, a vocal critic of the United States. From a possible Swedish “home,” it is a short eight-hour flight to New York, where a trial for espionage and other offenses and a “second home” await Mr. Assange.
