Honduras Presidential Election Analysis

  • SCI Belgrave Square, 14/15 Belgrave Square, London

As of 30th November, a winner had yet to be announced for the presidential election in Honduras held on 26th November. With half of the votes counted, Salvador Nasralla, of the opposition Alianza de Oposición contra la Dictadura coalition, looked set to be the winner. The latest count however gives incumbent Juan Orlando Hernández, of the ruling right-wing Partido Nacional, the lead. Nasralla has announced that he will not recognise the final result and decries electoral fraud. International observers have expressed concern, especially in light of the violent nature of some protests.
