Ninth federal electoral district of Chihuahua explained

The ninth federal electoral district of Chihuahua (Distrito electoral federal 09 de Chihuahua) is one of the 300 electoral districts into which Mexico is divided for elections to the federal Chamber of Deputies and one of nine such districts currently operating in the state of Chihuahua.[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 first region.[2] [3]

The ninth district was created as part of the 1977 electoral reforms. Under the 1975 districting plan, Chihuahua had only six congressional districts;[4] under the 1977 reforms, the number increased to ten.[5] The newly created ninth district elected its first deputy in the 1979 mid-term election.

District territory

Under the 2022 districting plan, which is to be used for the 2024, 2027 and 2030 federal elections,[6] the ninth district is located in the south-west of the state. It covers the municipalities of Allende, Balleza, Batopilas, Bocoyna, Carichí, Coronado, Chínipas, Dr. Belisario Domínguez, Guachochi, Guadalupe y Calvo, Guazapares, Hidalgo del Parral, Huejotitán, López, Maguarichi, Matamoros, Morelos, Nonoava, Rosario, San Francisco de Borja, San Francisco del Oro, Santa Bárbara, Satevó, El Tule, Urique, Uruachi and Valle de Zaragoza.[1] [7]

The district's head town (cabecera distrital), where results from individual polling stations are gathered together and tallied, is the city of Parral.[1]
