Dec. 1 (UPI) -- Honduran presidential candidate Nasry "Tito" Asfura -- whom President Donald Trump urged voters to support -- is leading in preliminary results from Sunday's general elections with a slight edge over fellow right-wing candidate Salvador Nasralla.

However, with 55% of polling stations counted, the difference between the two candidates is minimal -- fewer than 3,000 votes -- and could shift at any moment.

According to the National Electoral Council, Asfura leads the race with 40.1% of the vote, while Nasralla has 39.2%, the newspaper El Heraldo reported.
