Nasry Asfura, a conservative supported by U.S. President Donald Trump, was declared the winner in Honduras’s presidential election on Wednesday, following controversies surrounding the electoral process marred by technical glitches, protests, and accusations of impropriety.
The National Electoral Council (CNE) said Asfura, with 40.3 percent of the vote, defeated center-right Liberal Party candidate Salvador Nasralla, who secured 39.5 percent. Ruling LIBRE party candidate Rixi Moncada placed third with 19.28 percent of the vote.
