Protests are continuing in Honduras over the contested presidential election. Right-wing ruling party candidate Juan Orlando Hernández has named his transition team after election officials said he had an irreversible lead in the vote. But supporters of his challenger, Xiomara Castro, wife of ousted President Manuel Zelaya, have denounced the results as fraudulent. Hundreds of students took to the streets of the capital Tegucigalpa Tuesday where they faced tear gas from riot police. A student activist rejected the results of Sunday’s election.

Geraldina Carbajal: “We, the students, are here to protest the election fraud that happened on Sunday, November 24. They didn’t respect the decisions of the people. We, as students, have the responsibility to take to the streets to inspire the people to not accept the fraud. We know that Juan Orlando paid the tribunal off so that they would declare him president.”
