This meant there was a political crisis among competing elites and the opportunity for agrarian insurrection. </span><span>Wealthy landowner </span>Francisco I. Madero<span>challenged Díaz in the 1910 presidential election, and following the rigged results, revolted under the </span>Plan of San Luis Potosí.<span>Armed conflict ousted Díaz from power and a new election was held in 1911, bringing Madero to the presidency.
