Buenos Aires refused to ratify the San Nicolás Agreement, driven by Unitarian resistance to Urquiza's authority.
The San Nicolás Agreement called for a Constituent Congress. News of its signing provoked a reaction among zealous Unitarian factions in Buenos Aires. Colonel Mitre rallied the Assembly against the accords, and public opinion was shaped against the agreement before Governor López y Planes arrived.
