The 3rd federal electoral district of Tabasco (Spanish: Distrito electoral federal 03 de Tabasco) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of six such districts in the state of Tabasco.[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 third region.[2][3]

Suspended in 1930,[a] Tabasco's 3rd was re-established under President Luis Echeverría (1970–1976). The restored district returned its first deputy in the 1973 mid-term election.[7]

The current member for the district, elected in the 2024 general election, is Rosa Margarita Graniel Zenteno of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena).[8][9]

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,[10] Tabasco's 3rd district lies to the north-west of the state capital, Villahermosa, and covers 159 electoral precincts (secciones electorales) across two of the state's municipalities:[11]

The head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Comalcalco. The district reported a population of 354,198 in the 2020 Census.[1]

2017–2022

From 2017 to 2022, the district had the same configuration as in the 2023 scheme.[14][13]

2005–2017

Under the 2005 scheme, the district covered the municipalities of Comalcalco and Cunduacán as in the later plans, but also included 29 precincts in the south-east corner of the neighbouring municipality of Cárdenas.[15][16]

1996–2005

Tabasco gained its 6th district in the 1996 redistricting process. The 3rd covered the state's north-west, comprising the municipalities of Comalcalco, Cunduacán and Jalpa de Méndez, with the head town at Comalcalco.[17][16]

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, Tabasco's seat allocation rose from three to five.[12] The 3rd district's head town was at Cárdenas and it comprised the municipalities of Cárdenas and Huimanguillo.[18]

Notes

[edit]
  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";[4][5] as a result, the size of the Chamber of Deputies fell from 281 in the 1928 election to 171 in 1934.[6]
  2. ^ Originally elected for the PRD, Méndez Denis switched to the Citizen's Movement on 5 March 2013. On 3 February 2015 she switched again to Morena.
