The seventh federal electoral district of Chiapas (Distrito electoral federal 07 de Chiapas) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 13 such districts in the state of Chiapas.

It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative period, by means of the first-past-the-post system.

Suspended in 1930,[a] the seventh district was re-established as part of the 1977 electoral reforms. Under the 1975 districting plan, Chiapas had only six congressional districts;[4] under the 1977 reforms, the number increased to nine.[5] The restored seventh district elected its first deputy, to the 51st Congress, in the 1979 legislative election.

District territory

Under the 2022 districting plan, which will be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[6] Chiapas's seventh district covers nine municipalities along the Pacific Ocean coast and the border with the state of Oaxaca:

The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Tonalá.[8]

Notes

  1. ^ An amendment to Article 52 of the Constitution in 1928 changed the original provision of "one deputy per 60,000 inhabitants" to "one deputy per 100,000";[1][2] as a result, the size of the Chamber of Deputies fell from 281 in the 1928 election to 171 in 1934.[3]
