LIBRE presidential candidate Rixi Moncada is experiencing a significant decline in voting intentions less than 90 days before the general elections on November 30. After leading the polls in recent weeks, the decline in her support has raised alarms both in her party and in sectors of the opposition, which see a possible realignment in the electoral race.
Decline in voting intentions
The latest polls show that Rixi Moncada’s lead has narrowed significantly, putting an end to the initial perception that her candidacy was virtually untouchable. Analysts note that this decline coincides with questions about her economic proposals and concerns about the country’s political and financial stability. The campaign has seen an increase in the intensity of attacks from opposition sectors, contributing to the volatility of the electoral landscape.
LIBRE has started internal conversations about ways to recover voter trust. Sources within the party indicate that the decrease in popularity hasn’t been clearly shown in voting forecasts yet, but they admit there is a “red alert” about potential unexpected outcomes in elections.
Opportunities for the opposition
Although divided, the opposition is keeping a close eye on how voter sentiment is progressing. A drop in backing of Rixi Moncada may create opportunities for forming strategic alliances that might alter the competition’s dynamics. This situation indicates a climate of unpredictability where the actions of various parties could significantly impact the selection of the upcoming president.
Experts highlight that the interaction between the reduction in backing for LIBRE and the opposition’s capability to strengthen its voter base will play a crucial role in the weeks preceding the election. The rivalry is becoming fiercer in a setting where public involvement and the perception of institutional integrity are key factors in the ultimate result.
Electoral uncertainty and institutional challenges
The decrease in Rixi Moncada’s popularity mirrors wider issues in Honduras’ governance and political climate. Citizens continue to monitor electoral activities and indicators of economic steadiness, knowing the election will decide not only the future president but also the course of public policy in the next years.
The situation encountered by LIBRE underscores the connection between public trust, institutional robustness, and the presentation of political initiatives. With under three months remaining until the elections, the contest is still undecided, and the strategic choices made by the parties will dictate the ultimate result at the ballot box.
