Police officials burned tires in the streets and protested against the government, while air force officials shut down the airport in Quito. The army has said it supports Correa.
The protests have spread to other parts of Ecuador, and now include other public sector workers affected by the new legislation. Reports said that students have also started to protest.
Political analysts said the protests are creating a serious political challenge for the Correa administration, especially as the military and police remain powerful political constituencies in the Andean nation.
Radio Quito reported that banks and other businesses in Ecuador were closing due to a lack of security. Various bank robberies have taken place in the southern city of Guayaquil.
Guards at the nation’s Congress refused to open the doors to lawmakers who wanted to enter the national assembly.
The protests come, according to political analysts, as opposition legislators in the Congress have been meeting to try to force Correa to call early elections.
A police official, who didn’t want to be identified, said 40,000 police officers are protesting across the nation. He added that 35,000 members of the military are supporting the protests.
The national police started a large protest at a police barracks in the capital on Thursday to protest the government’s policies….

CIA/NED color revolutions follow a familiar pattern. Even before the election ends, opposition groups start agitating about election theft, especially if they are expected to lose.
