The left down in Honduras

We woke up Monday morning with good news from Honduras: the left was rejected again! From Argentina to Bolivia to Chile to now Honduras, the candidates from the left are not winning. Here is the story:

Early results from the general election in Honduras show Nasry Asfura, leader of the right-wing National Party, has a very narrow lead.

With more than 40% of the votes counted, the conservative candidate was just ahead of former TV host and Vice-President Salvador Nasralla, according to preliminary results published by the National Electoral Council (CNE).

Stressing that the results were both ‘preliminary and partial’, the head of the CNE said that the race was on a knife-edge between the two conservative candidates.

Asfura is fractionally in the lead with 40.5% of the vote, while his nearest challenger, Nasralla, is on 39%.

These two men will have to form some kind of centrist coalition. The good news is that both promised to cut ties with Venezuela. More good news is that Rixi Moncada, the candidate of the left, is down at 20%.

President Trump became a huge factor in this election. He endorsed Mr. Asfura, the former mayor of the capital, Tegucigalpa, because he’d be a partner to “fight the Narcocommunists” and counter drug-trafficking.

**I think that you are seeing the influence of Secretary of State Marco Rubio**

I like that. Should he succeed Trump for that reason?

Europe is toast.

A leftist American judge ruled that Honduras needs to have a new election due to the fact that the dead, illegals and non citizens couldn’t vote...
