1931 Argentine Presidential Election
Fraud restores the old order8 November 1931 · The Infamous Decade
Following months of protest triggered in part by the onset of the Great Depression, a quiet coup d'état deposed the aging Hipólito Yrigoyen in September 1930.
Held under the Concordancia's 'patriotic fraud', with the Radicals banned or robbed at the count. Recorded here as a rigged contest.
