As of Wed, Dec 2, 2025, the Honduran presidential election remains undecided after four days of vote counting. Salvador Nasralla of the Liberal Party currently leads with 40.23% of the vote, while Nasry Asfura of the National Party holds 39.69%, with 80.29% of the ballots counted, according to the National Electoral Council (CNE). The margin between the candidates is less than 14,000 votes.

Rixi Moncada of the ruling LIBRE Party is in third place with 19.01% of the votes. The election winner is determined by the highest number of votes, without requiring an absolute majority.

The vote counting process has faced delays due to technical difficulties. The CNE suspended counting twice, citing outages in the tabulating platform. CNE official Cossette Lopez-Osorio attributed the latest suspension to unannounced system maintenance, describing it as "inexcusable."

Ballots from remote areas, accessible only by donkey or river boats, are still being received, and a declaration of the winner might take several more days. The CNE has up to one month to announce the final results.

Early results had shown Asfura leading by approximately 500 votes. However, updates have since placed Nasralla in the lead. Allegations of election fraud were made by former U.S. President Donald Trump, who threatened to cut U.S. aid to Honduras if Asfura does not win. The U.S. provided $193.5 million in aid to Honduras in 2024.

Rixi Moncada criticized the vote transmission system for its lack of transparency, and election observers have called for calm as the count continues.

In a related development, former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez was pardoned by Trump and released from a 45-year sentence in the U.S. for drug trafficking. Hernandez expressed gratitude to Trump, likening his situation to political persecution.
