Honduran leader has lead in last tally but foe cries fraud

Tuesday, December 5, 2017


The final vote count in Honduras’ presidential election left the incumbent with a narrow lead Monday, while the main opposition candidate called the tally a fraud and urged the armed forces to take control “to ensure the votes of people are respected.”

Electoral officials said they were not declaring a winner yet, to allow the filing of challenges and appeals.
