Plan of San Luis Potosí

The Plan of San Luis Potosí was a political manifesto published by Francisco Madero in 1910. It declared the 1910 presidential election invalid due to widespread fraud and called for an armed uprising against the long-standing dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz. Madero, who had been imprisoned during the election, escaped to Texas and issued the plan, designating November 20, 1910, as the start date for the revolution. This plan served as the foundational document for the Mexican Revolution, aiming for effective suffrage and no reelection, and ultimately led to Díaz's resignation and Madero's presidency.123
