Abstract

The article focuses on Salvador Nasralla's challenge to the results of Honduras's recent presidential election, in which he lost to Nasry Asfura by approximately 27,000 votes. Nasralla, a four-time presidential candidate and television host, alleges electoral fraud and has requested a "total" recount from the electoral tribunal, citing irregularities in the process managed by the National Electoral Council (CNE). His appeal follows Asfura's declaration as the winner on December 24, which Nasralla claims undermines the will of the Honduran people. The article also notes the influence of U.S. politics, particularly Donald Trump's support for Asfura and the controversial pardon of former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez.
