On Sunday November 30th, Honduras held general elections. Despite concerns about the integrity of the electoral process, and some irregularities reported throughout the voting period, the election took place in a peaceful and orderly fashion, with robust turnout. Since then, delays in vote counting, close numbers between the frontrunners, and continuing U.S. interference have increased tensions in the country.

With only two days before the general elections in Honduras, the Trump Administration has escalated U.S. intervention, undermining Honduran self-determination and sovereignty. Meanwhile, Honduran social movements are warning of a potential electoral coup, a possibility that further contributes to the deep polarization and fear-mongering characterizing the elections. 

On November 30, 2025 Honduras will hold national elections in the midst of escalating U.S. interference in the region that includes military actions and threats of outright war against Venezuela, Colombia and Cuba from the Trump/Rubio administration. U.S. officials in the White House, State Department and Congress have been nurturing a propaganda campaign by the Honduran right wing press and organizations against the progressive forces in the country reminiscent of Cold War propaganda.
