1828 Mexican general election


The federal elections of Mexico of 1828 were held on September 1, 1828. In those the positions were elected through indirect election:
Two weeks later Antonio López de Santa Anna rose in rebellion against the election and at the end of November the rebels entered Mexico City. Gómez Pedraza abandoned his position and left the country. The Congress of the Union, pressured by the adherents of Guerrero, decided to cancel the elections and designated Vicente Guerrero as President of the Republic and Anastasio Bustamante as Vice-president from April 1, 1829. This arrangement proved unsustainable and on December 4 Bustamante rebelled against Guerrero, taking the presidency from January 1, 1830. A further rebellion in 1832 led to an agreement by which Gómez Pedraza would return to the presidency, at least until the elections of 1833 which Santa Anna would win.
