| Description | Ferdinand Marcos unexpectedly called for a presidential election in February 1986, the opposition united behind Aquino to opposed the Marcos regime. Although she was officially reported to have lost the election to Marcos, the elections were widely believed to be fraudulent. Both Marcos and Aquino claimed to have won, and held rival inaugurations on February 25, but Marcos then fled in the face of huge popular demonstrations and the refusal of the military to intervene against them. |
