Most opinion polls show a statistical tie among three of the five contenders to succeed President Xiomara Castro in Sunday's Honduras election: ruling party candidate Rixi Moncada, former Tegucigalpa Mayor Nasry Asfura of the National Party and TV host Salvador Nasralla of the Liberal Party.

Honduras on Sunday will hold general elections marked by preemptive allegations of voting fraud and an intervention by the United States.

Fears of electoral fraud and voter concerns about jobs and insecurity loom over a three-way contest for the presidency.

The lead-up to Sunday's vote has been marred by finger-pointing and fears of election manipulation by campaign rivals.

The presidential candidate for Honduras’ ruling Liberty and Refoundation Party (Libre), Rixi Moncada, denounced on Saturday the “interference” of United States President Donald Trump in the general elections.

Honduras’ homicide and unemployment rates have both improved during the past four years under outgoing President Xiomara Castro.

Several candidates are vying to replace President Xiomara Castro, but concerns about voting process have caused tension.

Democracy is on trial in the coming Elections in the beautiful country of Honduras on November 30th,” the president said in a post to Truth Social.
