TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras — President Manuel Zelaya enlisted government employees and his supporters Saturday to set up polling stations for a rogue referendum vote today that opponents depicted as a power grab by the leftist leader.
Zelaya cast himself as the survivor of an attempted right-wing coup and vowed to forge ahead in his quest to reform the constitution, which prevents him from being re-elected.
The Supreme Court and the attorney general have said the referendum is illegal because the constitution bars changes to some of its clauses, such as the ban on a president serving more than one term.
