Honduran opposition candidate Porfirio Lobo is leading in a presidential election that could ease a five-month crisis following the June coup against President Manuel Zelaya, media exit polls said on Sunday.
Lobo, a conservative, won more than 55 percent of Sunday's vote and was well ahead of ruling Liberal Party candidate Elvin Santos, the HRN radio station said. A TV channel gave Lobo 51 percent.
Lobo was seen as more likely than Santos to persuade foreign governments to recognize Sunday's election.

Nobody would want Zelaya back. Zelaya is a certified grade A nut.

Great news. Zelaya can now follow his true calling, as a stand-in for Joseph Mencia.

Bless the Hounduran people - they have more sense than the idiots here who are serfs as long as they get to watch college and NFL ball games.

Carlos would claim that it was HE who had contested an election in Honduras.

Not so fast! I doubt they’ve finished counting the Acorn
