Sixth Federal Electoral District 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.
District territory
Under the 2022 districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections, Chiapas's fifth district covers 10 municipalities:
- Acala, Chiapa de Corzo, Chiapilla, Emiliano Zapata, Nicolás Ruiz, San Lucas, Suchiapa, Totolapa, Tuxtla Gutiérrez and Venustiano Carranza.
The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the state capital, the city of Tuxtla Gutiérrez.
