Fourth federal electoral district of Chihuahua explained

The fourth federal electoral district of Chihuahua (Distrito electoral federal 04 de Chihuahua) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of nine such districts currently operating in the state of Chihuahua.[1]

It elects one deputy to the lower house of Congress for each three-year legislative session by means of the first-past-the-post system. Votes cast in the district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the first region.[2] [3]

District territory

Under the 2022 districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[4] the district covers a portion of the north of Ciudad Juárez. Ciudad Juárez also serves as its head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied.[5] [1]

Previous districting schemes

2017–2022Between 2017 and 2022, the fourth district covered the northern portion of Ciudad Juárez.[6]
2005–2017 Under the 2005 districting scheme, the district covered the southern portion of Ciudad Juárez,[7] which also served as the head town.[8]
1996–2005 Chihuahua lost its tenth district in the 1996 redistricting process. The fourth district covered almost exactly the same area as in the 2005 configuration.[8]
1979–1996 The districting scheme in force from 1978 to 1996 was the result of the 1977 electoral reforms, which increased the number of single-member seats in the Chamber of Deputies from 196 to 300. Under that plan, Chihuahua's seat allocation rose from six to ten.[9] The fourth district covered a portion of the Ciudad Juárez urban area and the rural portion of the municipality of Juárez.[10]
