Description: Mexican Revolution Border War Real Photo Postcard Ciudad Juarez May 1911 Elections declared null and void, Madero named provisional President. Madero won the presidential election in October 1911, but his new government wasn’t able to withstand constant attacks. A series of unsuccessful revolts culminated in a successful plot in February 1913. From February 9 to February 18, 1913—known in Mexican history as the Decena Trágica (“Ten Tragic Days”)—downtown Mexico City was converted into a battle zone. Civilian casualties were high, and the fighting ended only after the commander of the government forces, Huerta, together with his troops, changed sides and joined the rebels. Madero and his vice president, José María Pino Suárez, were promptly arrested, enabling Huerta to seize the presidency for himself. Shortly thereafter, on Huerta’s orders, Madero and Pino Suárez were shot. photographer: postcard copied by W.H.
