Honduras - November 2025
Honduras holds general elections
On 30 November, Honduras held general elections to choose the president, members of Congress, representatives to the Central American Parliament, as well as mayors and other local authorities. Final results are still pending as the National Electoral Council (CNE) continues counting votes. By 12 December, Nasry Asfura of the National Party leads in the presidential race with 40.5 per cent of the vote, followed closely by Salvador Nasralla of the Liberal Party with 39.2 per cent. Of the five presidential candidates, only one was a woman (Rixi Moncada), and women accounted for less than one-third of all registered candidacies in the general election.
Congressional vote counting also remains incomplete. Technical issues with the vote-processing system, allegations of inconsistencies in voter records, and claims of fraud by some candidates and parties have contributed to delays in the process.
