Honduran election officials declared Nasry Asfura, a conservative former mayor, the winner of the presidential election on Wednesday, December 24, 2025, after a vote count that lasted over three weeks. Asfura, of the National Party, won by a narrow margin in a contest marked by accusations of potential interference. The election garnered attention due to an endorsement from President Trump, who stated he could work with Asfura to address regional issues. While observers have not found evidence of widespread fraud, it remains unclear if Asfura's opponent, Salvador Nasralla, will concede the election. If the results stand, it would represent a victory for Trump, who has been actively supporting right-wing leaders in Latin America.
