Puebla's districts in 2017–2022

The 1st federal electoral district of Puebla (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 01 de Puebla) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of 16 such districts in the state of Puebla.[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 fourth region.[2][3]

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Gissel Santander Soto [es] of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).[4][5]

District territory

[edit]

Under the 2023 districting plan adopted by the National Electoral Institute (INE), which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[6] Puebla's congressional seat allocation rose from 15 to 16. The first district is in Puebla's Sierra Norte region in the extreme north of the state and covers 195 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across 17 of the state's municipalities:[7][8]

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Huauchinango de Degollado. The district reported a population of 397,252 in the 2020 Census and, with Indigenous and Afrodescendent inhabitants accounting for over 57% of that total, it is classified by the INE as an indigenous district.[1][a]

2017–2022

From 2017 to 2022, when Puebla was assigned 15 congressional seats, the 1st district's head town was at Huauchinango and it covered 19 municipalities.[12][11]

2005–2017

Under the 2005 plan, the district was one of 16 in Puebla. Its head town was at Huauchinango and it covered 16 municipalities.[13][14]

1996–2005

Between 1996 and 2005, Puebla had 15 districts. The 1st covered 16 municipalities, with its head town at Huauchinango.[15][14]

1978–1996

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, Puebla's seat allocation rose from 10 to 14.[9] The district's head town was the state capital, Puebla, and it covered parts of the city and of its surrounding municipality.[16]
