The second federal electoral district of Chiapas (Distrito electoral federal 02 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. Votes cast in the district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the third region.[1][2]

District territory

[edit]

Under the 2022 districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[3] the second district comprises 16 municipalities:

The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Bochil.[5]

With Indigenous and Afrodescendent inhabitants accounting for over 71% of its population, it is officially classified by the National Electoral Institute (INE) as an indigenous district.[4]

Previous districting schemes

[edit]
2017–2022

Under the 2017 districting scheme, the district comprised 18 municipalities in the same part of the state. The head town was at Bochil.[6]

2005–2017

Between 2005 and 2017, the second district of Chiapas was located in the Altos de Chiapas region and covered the municipalities of Aldama, Bochil, Chalchihuitán, Chapultenango, Chenalhó, Francisco León, Huitiupán, Ixhuatán, Jitotol, Larráinzar, Ocotepec, Pantelhó, Pantepec, Pueblo Nuevo Solistahuacán, Rayón, San Andrés Duraznal, San Juan Cancuc, Santiago el Pinar, Simojovel, Sitalá, Tapalapa and Tapilula.[7]

1996–2005

Between 1996 and 2005, the second district was broadly located in the same region of Chiapas, but with a different composition. It covered municipalities from both the Los Altos region and the extreme north of the state: Amatán, Chapultenango, El Bosque, Francisco León, Huitiupán, Ixhuatán, Ixtacomitán, Ixtapangajoya, Jitotol, Juárez, Ostuacán, Pantepec, Pichucalco, Pueblo Nuevo Solistahuacán, Rayón, Reforma, Simojovel, Solosuchiapa, Sunuapa, Tapilula and Tapalapa. It was at that time centred on the city of Pichucalco.[8]

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, Chiapas's seat allocation rose from six to nine.[9] The second district had its head town at San Cristóbal de Las Casas and it covered 13 municipalities.[10]
