La sucesión presidencial en 1910

In 1908, Francisco Madero published La sucesión presidencial en 1910 (The Presidential Succession in 1910), a pivotal work that called for honest elections and an end to presidential reelection in Mexico. This book emerged after dictator Porfirio Díaz suggested he might retire in 1910, sparking political activity. However, Díaz later decided to run for reelection, prompting Madero to organize the Antireelectionist Party and become its presidential candidate. Madero's slogan was "Effective suffrage—no reelection!". He was arrested before the election, escaped to Texas, and issued the Plan de San Luis Potosí, calling for an armed uprising. This ultimately led to the Mexican Revolution, which overthrew Díaz. Madero became president in 1911 but was assassinated in 1913.123
