The third federal electoral district of Hidalgo (Distrito electoral federal 03 de Hidalgo) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of the seven currently operational districts in the state of Hidalgo.[1]
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. As of 2024, votes cast in the district also count towards the calculation of proportional representation ("plurinominal") deputies elected from the fourth electoral region.[2] [3]
Under the 2022 districting plan, the district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and collated, is the city of Actopan.[1] It covers 12 municipalities : Actopan, Atotonilco el Grande, El Arenal, Epazoyucan, Huasca de Ocampo, Metztitlán, Mineral del Chico, Mineral del Monte, Mineral de la Reforma, Omitlán de Juárez, San Agustín Metzquititlán and Singuilucan.[4] [5]
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, Hidalgo's seat allocation rose from five to six.[11] The third district's head town was at Tula de Allende and it covered 14 municipalities.[12]
