Zelaya Will Not Be Reinstated

The decisive tally is 65 in favor of not reinstating Zelaya, and 8 against. Even if the rest of the 128 congress people voted to reinstate him, he would only have 63 votes.

Therefore, Mr. Manuel Zelaya Rosales will not be restored to the presidency in Honduras.

Almost There…

Congress is now at 62 in favor of not reinstating Zelaya, 9 say yes.

Votes in Congress Cast So Far

At this point, there are 31 who believe Zelaya should not be reinstated, and 4 who believe he should be reinstated.

Congress said they are not voting on whether Zelaya should be reinstated to the presidency, but rather on whether their prior decision to remove him from office was correct.
