Trump-Backed Candidate Leads Honduras Election
Update: 2025-12-07
Description
In Honduras, the presidential race is too close to call, with conservative candidate Nasry Asfura holding a slight lead. Election officials are reviewing 14% of ballots due to inconsistencies. The LIBRE Party has called for a full recount, and the U.S. is closely watching. Former President Trump, who endorsed Asfura, has claimed election fraud without evidence. He also pardoned former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, a member of Asfuras party, who had been serving a 45-year sentence in the U.S. for drug trafficking and weapons charges. Despite tensions, the streets of Tegucigalpa remain calm as election workers continue counting.
