That’s largely because, even in the absence of a clear winner, Hondurans firmly rejected the candidate from the ruling Libre Party, which they say failed to deliver on anti-corruption and economic promises. Instead, Nasry “Tito” Asfura, 67, who holds a narrow lead, and Salvador Nasralla, 72, have positioned themselves as business-friendly contenders bent on repairing relations with Honduras’s biggest trade partner, the US. Asfura, the capital’s former mayor, and Nasralla, a TV host, have 40.5% and 39.2% of the votes, respectively. The election commission has until the end of the month to release final results.
