The Rheestas and Matero in the Mexican Presidential Election of 1911

Francisco Matero had started campaigning for president nearly two years earlier, and it was an utterly quixotic campaign. With the election approaching on October 1st, Matero would probably win. But a month after that, on November 1st, maybe not. Time was on the side of the Rheestas, and both Reyes and Matero knew it. So next week we will see if Francisco Matero can control the tiger he has unleashed.
