Voters in Honduras will select candidates from the three main parties to compete in November’s general election for the presidency. The primaries are being held on Sunday. The Central American country remains deeply polarized. And voters are skeptical of leaders from the left and right who have failed to deliver on improving security and the economy. The election comes at a time when President Xiomara Castro of the leftist LIBRE party has a tense relationship with the United States. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio notably left Honduras off of his itinerary when he made his first overseas trip to the region as secretary last month.
