Although Pachecho's Democratic Party was the smallest faction in Congress, he was elected President by 47 votes to 29 for Liberal candidate Eliodoro Camacho after the Conservatives decided to support Pacheco. Their decision followed an agreement between Mariano Baptista of the Conservative Party and Jorge Oblitas and Casimiro Corral of the Liberal Party that Pacheco would work to support Conservative candidate Aniceto Arce in the next elections.
