Sixth federal electoral district of Michoacán explained

The sixth federal electoral district of Michoacán (Distrito electoral federal 06 de Michoacán) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of eleven such districts in the state of Michoacán.[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 fifth region.[2] [3]

District territory

Michoacán lost its 12th district in the 2022 redistricting process. Under the new districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[4] the sixth district covers 13 municipalities in the north-east of the state:

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

Previous districting schemes

2017–2022Between 2017 and 2022, the district's head town was at Ciudad Hidalgo and it comprised nine municipalities: Aporo, Contepec, Epitacio Huerta, Hidalgo, Irimbo, Maravatío, Queréndaro, Senguio and Tlalpujahua.[6]
2005–2017Under the 2005 districting plan, Michoacán lost its 13th district. The sixth district's head town was at Ciudad Hidalgo and it covered a slightly different set of nine municipalities:Contepec, Epitacio Huerta, Hidalgo, Irimbo, Maravatío, Queréndaro, Senguio, Tlalpujahua and Zinapécuaro.[7] [8]

1978–1996The 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 the reforms, Michoacán's allocation rose from 9 to 13.[10] The sixth district's head town was at Uruapan in the centre-west of the state and it was composed of seven municipalities: Gabriel Zamora, Nuevo Parangaricutiro, Nuevo Urecho, Taretan, Tingambato, Uruapan and Ziracuaretiro.[11]
