Wealth had become concentrated in the hands of foreign investors and a small Mexican elite. Most mexicans lived in poverty and opposition to diez grew steadily. In 1910 porifio diez ran for a re-election , as in earlier elections diez controlled the outcome just before the election began he jailed his opponant Francisco Madero. When the ballots were counted diez claimed he had a million votes and Madero had fewer than 200. Good luck! :D
