General elections are due to be held in Honduras on 30 November 2025[1] to elect the President, members of the National Congress and 20 members of the Central American Parliament.

Electoral system

The President of Honduras is elected by plurality, with the candidate receiving the most votes in a single round of voting declared the winner.[2] The 128 members of the National Congress are elected by open list proportional representation from 18 multi-member constituencies based on the departments ranging in size from one to 23 seats.[3] Seats are allocated using the Hare quota.[3]

Primary elections

Primaries were held to elect candidates for President, Congress, and mayoralties for LIBRE, and the National and Liberal parties on 9 March 2025. Eleven other parties did not qualify for primaries and chose candidates internally. Ten candidates ran for the presidential nomination; two in LIBRE, and four each in the National and Liberal parties. Delays in delivering electoral material led to polling centers not opening on time, causing minor protests.[4]
