Honduras' Congress votes against return of ousted president

Honduras' Congress overwhelmingly voted against reinstating President Manuel Zelaya, shrugging off international pressure four months after a coup that isolated one of the poorest countries in the Americas.

After a 10-hour debate, politicians voted 111-14 not to return the leftist leader to power for the remainder of his term, which ends on January 27, as Washington and many Latin American governments had urged.
